Well, I use mutt in an xterm under XDarwin. This has the advantage that simply selecting some text copies it into the clipboard. I use Keyboard Maestro (great tool, shareware, worth every penny) to bind a key to a simple AppleScript. I can't get to that script right now (it's on a different machine, and I can't figure out how to read the compiled AppleScript from the commandline), but it is equivalent to the following shell script (note the *very important* quoting): osascript -e 'open location "'"`pbpaste`"'"' This means that launching an URL from mutt takes two steps: select, then keypress. (If the URL is long and wraps, however, I have to pipe it through cat or something first.) } Nancy --Greg
