Hi Oleg,

An alias only will not work AFAICT, you have to try out to be sure.
The default PATH is /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin, and the quickest way
to add the wrapper script is by putting it inside one of them, I had
suggest the first path in /usr/local/bin.

>From the command line you can execute:
$ cd /usr/local/bin
$ cat > moblin-web-browser << EOF
#!/bin/sh
firefox $*
EOF

and
$ chmod +x moblin-web-browser

I don't recommened to put things within /usr/bin unless you know what
you are doing. Packages installed via the package maintainer may
overwrite or even miss-behave if you do bad things.

That is all you should need to do.

Mike
