Custom plumber in Emacs and sacc
================================


Emacs
-----

When a URL button is pressed, Emacs invokes the browse-url function, which
tipically triggers xdg-open on Linux systems. If you want to use a custom
plumber script instead:

    ;;;$DOOMDIR/config.el

    (setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-generic
          browse-url-generic-program "plumb")


sacc
----

The following patch makes sacc fire *plumber right away on selecting type BIN
IMG or GIF:
