Note about konqueror
--------------------
When 'konqueror' is specified by the a command line option or a
configuration variable, we launch 'kfmclient' to try to open the HTML
man page on an already opened konqueror in a new tab if possible.
For consistency, we also try such a trick if 'brower.konqueror.path' is
set to something like 'A_PATH_TO/konqueror'. That means we will try to
launch 'A_PATH_TO/kfmclient' instead.
If you really want to use 'konqueror', then you can use something like
the following:
------------------------------------------------
[web]
browser = konq
[browser "konq"]
cmd = A_PATH_TO/konqueror
------------------------------------------------
