You can use Emacs as the editor for composing mail for
‘mailto:’ links, reading Usenet for ‘news:’
links, and viewing source. The following registry entries control
this:
- Mail
- Key: HKCR\mailto\shell\open\command\(Default)
- Value: emacsclientw -e "(message-mail (substring \"%1\" 7))"
- News
- Key: HKCR\news\shell\open\command\(Default)
- Value: emacsclientw -e "(gnus-fetch-group (substring \"%1\" 5)"
- View Source
- Key: HKCR\htmlfile\shell\edit\command\(Default)
- Value: emacsclientw "%1"
