/**
* gtk_show_uri:
* @screen: screen to show the uri on or NULL for the default screen
* @uri: the uri to show
* @timestamp: a timestamp to prevent focus stealing.
* @error: a #GError that is returned in case of errors
*
* This is a convenience function for launching the default application to show
* the uri. The uri can amongst others (depending on support in gio/gvfs) take
* the following forms:
* "file:///home/gnome/pict.jpg",
* "http://www.gnome.org",
* "mailto:me@gnome.org",
* "ghelp:eog".
* Ideally the timestamp is taken from the event triggering gtk_show_uri.
* If timestamp is not known you can take %GDK_CURRENT_TIME
*
* Returns: %TRUE on success, %FALSE on error.
*
* Since: 2.14
