Register a url handler in gconf (example using evince) # sudo gconftool-2 -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/evince/command '/usr/bin/evince %s' --type String # sudo gconftool-2 -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/evince/enabled --type Boolean true 2. Load Firefox 3. Try the new handler in Firefox URL bar by typing "evince:///testing". 4.
