Re: opening helper apps



Firefox-x11 is not a Aqua application, and so it being installed doesn't make a difference at all. You cannot set it as default for anything Aqua related. This is an unfortunate side-effect of the decentralized, capability-but-not-policy of X11. All links from Aqua applications will go to the default browser, which is not firefox-x11. It should open Safari or OmniWeb or FireFox (real firefox, not the fink version), or whatever browser you have installed.
Does this make sense?

Maybe I wasn't clear enough, I'm meant when clicking links from within other X11 applications.
A specific example is GnuCash, the help contents won't open and when clicking the link to http://www.gnucash.org in the About menu I get the error detailed previously.
