The fixes involve:
Allowing 'Open URL' services to work with either string pastebooard
data (how
it used to work) or url pastebaord data (the preferred format
nowadays), and
fixing a naming issue so that opening a URL via services should work
reliably
again.
The attempts the framework makes automatically should now be in four
stages
before failure:
1. try asking a GNUstep app to open the URL (using the preferred app)
if any
app is available
2. try asking an 'Open URL' service to open the URL
3. try running the non-gnustep program specified by the NSWebBrowser
user
default
4. try the fallback mechanism for opening a file of unknown type
So I built from svn revision 942:
- Pantomime framework,
- GNUMail.
Did make_services.
Unfortunately, I had still this unexpected behaviour:
Clicking on a link from a message read in GNUMail:
1) Firefox.app is called and launched: but it opens a new default tab,
not the expected URL;
2) After several seconds, an NSAlert Panel said: "No service matching
'OpenURL'";
3) After I closed this panel, the expected URL was finally opened in a
new tab.
Cheers,
Patrick
