Iceweasel is an open-source web browser, designed for standards compliance, performance and portability.

If there is an Iceweasel browser already running, iceweasel will arrange for it to create a new browser window; otherwise it will start a new instance.

A summary of the options supported by iceweasel is included below.

X11 options

--display=DISPLAY
