It uses the BROWSER environment variable if it exists to pick a browser to which it sends a mailto: link containing all the info to compose a mail in the composer that the browser uses to handle mailto. Hope that makes sense. :)
Yes it does, thanks. The problem then is that I do not have set the BROWSER env variable, because I choose the browser according to particular browsing needs; i.e. mostly Opera, sometimes FF, sometimes Konqueror, rarely Mozilla, Links.
$ BROWSER=konqueror googleearth
Yes this works nicely, I may just add it to my Fluxbox menu command.
You may also edit the googleearth script and add BROWSER=whatever at the top
Hmm, this does not seem to work at all: =============================================== $ googleearth /usr/bin/googleearth: line 10: =/usr/kde/3.5/bin/konqueror: No such file or directory =============================================== I've tried all sorts of nomenclature (placing the path in " ", etc.) but it won't work. It just launches Firefox. Although I've set the mailto: path in FF config to kmail, FF does not seem to respond to the 'attachto=' that googleearth passes on to it. As a result a new message is opened but no attachment is created. Any idea what the syntax should look like for the googleearth script to acknowledge the BROWSER env variable? -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
