I was not in an open checkout. In that computer I never opened the repository, because I am only interested in the 'ui'. I have the global setting to 'lynx'. Out of any opened repository: $ fossil settings .... web-browser (global) lynx $ fossil ui file.fossil ^this does not open lynx. This opens firefox. Tested in x86_64-linux and mips-linux. If I get into an opened checkout, and I type "fossil ui", it yes opens lynx. There may be some bug. May I report it or the list is enough?
