In reply to rilian4. Does this "fixed some bugs for me" include opening up results in browsers like elinks or w3m? I still cannot open any results. Dev suggest we grab the latest development branch and try but that didn't help me. To file a bug, we have to add some logs in gist and a few other items/results from "googler -d" but I haven't had a chance yet. Just checking if anyone else is having the same issue other than the two of us

Update via source code from the git site using the master branch. It fixed some bugs for me.

I am using googler on Ubuntu 18 and am unable to open any search results in a browser even after setting the BROWSER=w3m. I have also installed w3m and it works fine. I must say that the utility is awesome and I would like to use it further. Thanks
