.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
Given one or more
.IR url s,
.I lynx2txt
will instruct the plumber to open a new editor window for
each with a text representation of the contents.
.PP
.B Sendurl
sends one or more
.IR url s
to
.IR prowl ,
which will normally have the effect of delivering them to
associated OS X or iOS devices for viewing. This is useful in
plumbing rules or to set as
.IR $browser
for applications that expect it.
.PP
.B Web
will write one or more
.IR url s
to
.B /mnt/term/tmp/open.fifo
if it exists, and if not call
.I $browser
if it is set or
.I lynx2txt
(described above) if not. The fifo file is typically provided by
a drawterm connection having executed something like this:
.EX
mkfifo /tmp/open.fifo
while () {open `{cat /tmp/open.fifo}}
.EE
or the local equivalent to get things opened by the calling
system. The effect is to make plumbed URLs open in the
default browser of the calling host.
