First of all thanks because this was bugging me as well.
Works for me. What needs to be improved is to make Firebird open a new tab/window if it's already loaded and not try to open a new instance (which will result in a "Select Profile"). Can anyone tell how to do that?
Based on the next link -
http://www.mozilla.org/unix/remote.html
The correct way to approach this is to use the -remote command on MozillaFirebird invocation.
if you use -
$FIREBIRD_HOME/run-mozilla.sh $FIREBIRD_HOME/MozillaFirebird -remote "openurl($1)"
instead of what you've entered that should've solved this our problem -
_BUT_ ....
When I try running this with Firebird 0.6 which works fine with you're script - it has some kind of bug in the remote mechanisim that makes you get a "failed to send" error whenever thunderbird is open.
Before I jumped and sent firebird my Error report I used the nightly build of firebird to see if it's been fixed and it has !
_BUT_ ....
Now you're script doesn't work giving me a "stty: standard input: Inappropriate ioctl for device" each time I click a URL in thunderbird.
Any ideas?
Anyway I think we're starting to get to the right direction the thunderbird and Firebird duo are awesome and when this petty problem goes away I'm sure thunderbird will catch on as well.
