David,
Thanks for your script :) However, I'm getting the following error
messages:
Executing: openurl
'http://washingtonpost.com/cgi-bin/gx.cgi/AppLogic+FTContentServer?pagename=wpni/print&articleid=A64933-2000Mar2'...
/home/john/bin/openurl: =: command not found
/home/john/bin/openurl: die: command not found
/home/john/bin/openurl: =/home/john: No such file or directory
/home/john/bin/openurl: syntax error near unexpected token
`open(STDOUT,'
/home/john/bin/openurl: /home/john/bin/openurl: line 14: `
open(STDOUT, ">/dev/null");
My ~/.urlview is set up as you suggested below
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
John
