Documentation

Command to retrieve an URL via an external program.

If nil, url-retrieve is used to download the data. If sync, url-retrieve-synchronously is used. For other non-nil values, this should be a list of strings where the first item is the program, and the rest are the arguments.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 28.1.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 28.1.
