Summary: Greatly enhanced webbrowser.py
Initial Comment:
The patch enhances webbrowser.py.
First, all calls to os.system return result code, and
the inverse of the code (it is ok/fail status) passed
through all higher-level routines up to top-level call
to open(url). This allows to check if a browser was
really started.
Second, the very open() modified so it is now trying to
run all registered browsers in order until a browser
returns 1.
Third, the file can be used as a program: webbrowser.py
url. Optional parameters -n allows to open the url in a
new window.

Adding new patch (webbrowser.diff), enhanced with other
patches and bugfixes here on SF.
Also updated the docs with changed/added notes.

I have revised: libwebbrowser.tex.patch and
webbrowser.py.patch.
They are Ok, I recommend to apply both. Outstanding work.
However, I would withdraw the webbrowser wrapper script,
since the same functionality can be accomplished with:
python -m webbrowser http://www.python.org

Do not report error if the browser doesn't support tabs -
just open the URL in a new window.

I've reworked the patch once more. I moved some common
functionality into the UnixBrowser class and added two new
features - Elinks launcher class (elinks supports remote
commands in a manner very similar to Mozilla) and new-tab
functionality for browsers that support tabbed browsing
(Mozilla and elinks); a user can now run "webbrowser -t URL"
to open the URL a new tab. All classes in the module are now
new-style classes (except for the Error class).

Uploading webbrowser wrapper script. Put it into
Tools/scripts directory, and add to the end of setup.py.

There's no uploaded file! You have to check the
checkbox labeled "Check to Upload & Attach File"
when you upload a file. In addition, even if you
*did* check this checkbox, a bug in SourceForge
prevents attaching a file when *creating* an issue.
Please try again.
(This is a SourceForge annoyance that we can do
nothing about. :-( )

I've consolidated patches 728278, 754022, 954628, 1166780
into this single patch. Some parts of those patches were
applied, some rejected, many things changed. I also added
elinks support - currently it is very similar to links.
