Put
export BROWSER=your_browser
into your bashrc, zshrc or into a file you put into /etc/profile.d, depending on what you want.
some application (in my case e.g. google earth) doesn't work correctly by putting BROWSER variable into ~/.zshrc. I've solved by putting the following into ~/.xprofile:
BROWSER='/usr/bin/firefox' export BROWSER
That's odd. I tried "env BROWSER=firefox evince <some-PDF-document>", but evince would continue to use epiphany. But thanks for the hint! I wonder why the "$BROWSER standard" isn't honoured by evince. clemens
