Yeah, I have a tendency to do that.

It's basically the same as calling "gnome-open <url>". Sometimes there are special cases, however. The email URI scheme is internal and special to evolution and no default GNOME desktop (that I'm aware of) has handlers for it. beagle-search calls "evolution <uri>" directly.

It's done at open-time. > Why would the webpages switch to AbiWord then? My only guess is that AbiWord has set itself as the default handler for HTTP URIs, or possibly for HTML files.
