There  is now PLUMB() in config.h, which will be run, when some URI does
not start with "about:", "http://"; or "https://";. Please  test  this  if
there  are  some other URIS that should be handled from some outside ap‐
plication.

It’s called »plumb« due to the plumber(1) in Plan 9. By default it’s us‐
ing this half‐assed xdg‐open defined by some incompetent  desktop  stan‐
dards website.


Sincerely,

Christoph Lohmann
