I tried that. Now I get :
"""
No webpage was found for the web address:
file://localhost/var/folders/rj/6r6lch2d1mqb6p8k7s_ydrh80000gn/T/withstdin9745
"""
Time doesn't permit me to look at your script closely until later
tonight or tomorrow morning, but perhaps something needs to be
modified in the script?
Also, I note that I have to give full path to Chrome and withstdin
in the mailcap entry. Don't quite get that... I see /usr/local/bin
in $PATH and `which' sees the scripts and the symlink....
