Comment #37 on issue 160 by mordraug: ed2k: protocol should not encode | and = http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=160
I have developed a workaround for windows using batch files and a little replace utility. Hopefully, better gifted scripters will simplify it, generalise it, and develope linux versions. For me, It's meant to launch amulecmd to send the ed2k link from my windows laptop to my linux server. I suppose that you have amule installed to listen to external connections on the linux machine, and the client on windows to connect to the linux one (look for amule howtos). It also should not interfere with ed2k links launched from Firefox or Explorer. So first, register the ed2k to launch the file: C:\Program Files\aMule\ed2k_remote.bat (For instructions, see http://wiki.amule.org/index.php/Ed2k_links_handling ) Second, download ReplaceStr: * http://www.cylog.org/files/cmdline/rstr112.zip * Instructions: http://www.cylog.org/tools/cmdline.jsp And place replacestr.exe in C:\Program Files\aMule\ Third, create ed2k_remote.bat, with the following text: rem -- START OF SCRIPT @echo off cd "c:\Program Files\aMule\" set link=%1 for /f "useback tokens=*" %%a in ('%link%') do set link=%%~a echo "c:\Program Files\aMule\amulecmd.exe" /h ubuntu /P neuromante /c "add %link%" > temp.bat replacestr "%7C" "|" <temp.bat >temp2.bat call temp2.bat REM pause to see error messages, remove if unneeded @pause REM --END OF SCRIPT-- Final sidenote: My honest opinion is that the program launched to treat ed2k links (Emule, Amule, etc) should do this work represented here, since "|" is not a valid URL character, and the correct behaviour is to encode it. It's not so difficult, and %7C should have no other meaning for them. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
