Running O index throws a register() takes from 2 to 3 posistional arguments but 4 were given error. Runnning ddgr --url-handler=opera has the expected functionality though. My BROWSER var is set to /usr/bin/opera image

There are 2 problems:

  1. Python 3.7 issue is a duplicate of #63.

  2. Opera doesn't play well with webbrowser.open(). This is discussed here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51123537/webbrowser-open-breaks-the-link-python-3-7

--url-handler=opera uses the other method.

I'll test and document the opera issue.
