One way to do it would be to configure urlview to use a script as a
browser. Then in this script, you can do something like:
#!/bin/sh
choice=""
while [ "$choice" != 1 -a "$choice" != 2 ] ; do
echo "Options:"
echo "1. Firefox"
echo "2. w3m"
read -p "-> " choice
done
if [ "$choice" -eq 1 ] ; then
firefox "$1"
else
w3m "$1"
fi
... OR you could have your script decide based on an environment
variable, like so:
#!/bin/sh
$BROWSER "$1"
Then all you'd need to do is set BROWSER before calling urlview, like
so:
macro index,pager \cb '<pipe-message>env BROWSER=firefox urlview<enter>'
macro index,pager \cn '<pipe-message>env BROWSER=w3m urlview<enter>'
