Sorry to butt in but:
browse-url-of-file doesn't work here.. it gives this error
browse-url: Wrong type argument: listp, w3m-browse-url
Which appears to mean my settings for w3m are interfering but not sure
what to do about it. I'm not sure what all they are even but
I see:
browse-url-browser-function is a variable defined in `browse-url.el'.
Its value is browse-url-firefox
So what do I need to do to have browse-url-of-file call firefox?
