chooser is a graphical utility that enables one to choose which web browser to use when opening a URI.
Make sure that pyxdg and wxPython are installed on your system. If you have pip installed, run:
pip install chooser
You can also download the source tarball, unpack, and run:
python setup.py install
from within the source directory.
To invoke the utility when attempting to view a selected URI via the mouse popup menu provided in many desktop environments, set your default web browser to:
chooser "%s"
By default, chooser searches for several common web browsers. One may also specify which browsers to display in the configuration file ~/.config/chooser/chooserrc as follows:
[Browsers]
Firefox: /usr/bin/firefox
Chromium: /usr/bin/chromium-browser
