I am using xchat under X11 to get on irc. When I rclick on a URL one
of the choices is "Send URL to..." which has the following choices:
Gnome URL Handler
Lynx
links
ncFTP
gFTP
KFM
Telnet
Ping
Now, I have both lynx and links installed, but neither of those choices
work.
So, I messed around with this for quite a while until someone suggested
using the full path to the Aqua executable as the handler. This worked
/Applications/myBroswer.appl/Contents/MacOS/browser %s
but then an even better solution:
Open in Aqua !open %s
passes the URL right to OS X and your default browser/client handles
it. Very cool.
Only problem is, sometimes I WANT links to handle the URL within X11,
and that doesn't work even if I specify the full path to links. Anyone
have a solution for this?
