This should work good for Firefox.
Thanks, Randy.
Using DJ's /usr/bin/{thunderbird,firefox}, I can open URL's from
Thunderbird into a new tab in firefox. However, I haven't succeeded in
getting 'mailto' to work yet. This is my user.js for Firefox:
// Stop reusing active windows:
//user_pref("advanced.system.suportDDEExec ", false);
/* Do not remove the @namespace line--it's required for correct
* functioning */
/* Set default namespace to XUL */
@namespace
url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
/* Mailto: links in Firefox, launch Thunderbird */
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.mailto",
"/usr/bin/thunderbird");
I don't know where the DDEExec stuff came from. I ran 'touch user.js'
and it was there when I opened the file in VIM. I've commented it out
just because I don't know what it is. The rest I copied and pasted from
a reply on the firefox forum.
Here's the related stuff from my firefox set up from 'about:config':
network.protocol-handler.expose-all is set to true
network.protocol-handler.expose.mailto is set to false
network.protocol-handler.external.mailto is set to true
(these are just informational and, of course, do not reflect the proper
formatting neither in prefs.js nor in about:config)
Does my setup look right? I've looked at DJ's thunderbird script and
can't find anything obvious. (I didn't use my "Bash Reference Guide" to
study the script, however. I need it to translate all the tests. Don't
have 'em locked in the grey matter yet. :) )
Thanks,
Dan
