Linux URIs

This page presents the uri(7) man page, defining common URIs on GNU/Linux systems. This includes schemes common on GNU/Linux but not necessarily formally defined, such as the man: and info: schemes that both GNOME and KDE implement. If you're running a Linux system, you can just ask for "man:uri(7)" through a browser or type "man 7 uri" at the command line to view this information.

You can view uri(7) in one of the following formats:

1. HTML
2. Postscript
3. PDF
4. man page format

You might also want to look at related material, such as:

4. KDE
5. The Secure BROWSER convention (a convention for invoking user-defined browsers on Unix-like systems)
