unit -> (t option, string) Stdlib.resultfind ~search ~browser tries to find a browser in a rather
complex and platform dependent way.
val show : background:bool ->
prefix:bool ->
t option -> string -> (unit, string) Stdlib.resultshow ~background ~prefix browser uri shows URI using browser
browser (if None an error message is returned mentioning
that no browser was found. If background is true tries to
keep the browser application in the background, if false
brings it in user focus.
The function tries to limit the creation of new tabs using the following strategy:
uri (or is prefixed by uri
when prefix is true), reload this tab.uri (or is prefixed
by uri when prefix is true), pick the left most one, make it
current in the window and reload it.uri otherwise create a new tab
with uri and make it current for the window.
