This is part of an on-going +;; effort to increase the information I provide people while reducing the +;; ammount of typing I need to do (see also handyurl.el which is available +;; from ), no-doubt +;; there are undiscovered Emacs packages out there that do all of this and +;; do it better, feel free to point me to them, in the mean time I'm having +;; fun playing with Emacs Lisp. +;; +;; The URLs are stored in an external file as a list of either cons cells, +;; or lists. A cons cell entry looks like this: +;; +;; ( . ) +;; +;; where is a string that acts as the keyword lookup and is +;; the URL associated with it. An example might be: +;; +;; ("GNU" . "http://www.gnu.org/") +;; +;; A list entry looks like: +;; +;; ( ) +;; +;; where and are the same as with the cons cell and +;; is any text you like that describes the URL. This description will be +;; used when presenting a list of URLS using `quickurl-list'. An example +;; might be: +;; +;; ("FSF" "http://www.fsf.org/" "The Free Software Foundation") +;; +;; Given the above, your quickurl file might look like: +;; +;; (("GNU" . "http://www.gnu.org/") +;; ("FSF" "http://www.fsf.org/" "The Free Software Foundation") +;; ("emacs" . "http://www.emacs.org/") +;; ("hagbard" "http://www.hagbard.demon.co.uk" "Hagbard's World")) +;; +;; In case you're wondering about the mixture of cons cells and lists, +;; quickurl started life using just the cons cells, there were no comments. +;; URL comments are a later addition and so there is a mixture to keep +;; backward compatibility with existing URL lists. +;; +;; The name and location of the file is up to you, the default name used by +;; the `quickurl' is stored in `quickurl-url-file'. +;; +;; quickurl is always available from: +;; +;; +;; + +;;; TODO: +;; +;; o The quickurl-browse-url* functions pretty much duplicate their non +;; browsing friends.
