Version: 24.1

The function browse-url-default-browser uses xdg-open now if it can.

hello,

this patch comes from one of our users:
it uses xdg-open(1) command for "M-x browse-url",
so the URL is opened in the browser, which is
set as the default browser by the user in his/her
desktop settings

see attachment.

best regards, have a nice day,

 Daniel Novotny, Red Hat inc.
