Open URL under cursor in Vim with browser

Question

I\'m using Twitvim for the first time. Seeing all the URLs in there made me wonder, is there any way to open the URL under the cursor in your favorite browser or a specified one

Answer 1

This is simple, just replace "start" with whatever your OS uses

GU for go url!

" Open url
if (has('win32') || has('win64'))
   nmap gu :exec "!start " 
else
   nmap gu :exec "!open " 
endif
