[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: Browser widget to use FireFox. How?

["Grant Gayed" <grant_gayed@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The Browser will will always use Safari on OSX, and on linux will use
whatever is pointed at by MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME (or will attempt to auto-detect
if MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME is not set).  See
http://www.eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#browserlinux .
