    browse-url-of-file is an interactive compiled Lisp function in
    `browse-url.el’.

    It is bound to <menu-bar> <HTML> <Load this Buffer in Browser>, C-c
    C-z v.

    (browse-url-of-file &optional file)

    Ask a WWW browser to display file.
    Display the current buffer’s file if file is nil or if called
    interactively. Turn the filename into a URL with function
    browse-url-file-url. Pass the URL to a browser using the
    browse-url function then run browse-url-of-file-hook.
