The default programs that RTV interacts with can be configured through environment variables
|

|
|
||||||
``$BROWSER``
|
|
||||||
Submission links will be opened inside of your web browser. On most systems, the default web browser will pop up in a new window. If you prefer the complete terminal experience, try using a console-based web browser (`w3m <http://w3m.sourceforge.net/>`_, `lynx <http://lynx.isc.org/>`_, and `elinks <http://elinks.or.cz/>`_ are all good choices).
|
|
||||||
``$PAGER``

||||||
Extra long comments and submissions can be opened using the system's pager.
|
|
||||||
``$RTV_EDITOR``

These applications don't come pre-installed, but are available through most systems' package managers.
