# Procs

    proc openDefaultBrowser(url: string) {...}{.raises: [], tags: [].}

  opens `url` with the user's default browser. This does not block.

  Under Windows, `ShellExecute` is used. Under Mac OS X the `open` command is used. Under Unix, it is checked if `xdg-open` exists and used if it does. Otherwise the environment variable `BROWSER` is used to determine the default browser to use.
