browse-url-galeon always uses --existing

[Stefan van der Walt]

Hi all,

I tried to find the bug-tracker on savannah, but couldn't, so my
apologies if this goes to the wrong list.

I use galeon as my browser, and it seems that '--existing' is always
appended to the command, which means it is impossible to use a new tab
to open a page.

The problem occurs on line 1109 of browse-url.el (CVS HEAD), after

(browse-url-maybe-new-window new-window)

evaluates to true.

I tried both

 '(browse-url-browser-function (quote browse-url-galeon) t)
 '(browse-url-galeon-arguments '("--new-tab"))

and

 '(browse-url-browser-function (quote browse-url-galeon) t)
 '(browse-url-galeon-new-window-as tab 't)

in my config.

I am running

GNU Emacs 23.0.0.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.10.11) of
2007-06-02

Regards
Stéfan
