I condigured KDE to use Firebird as the default browser, but if I clicked on multiple links in K-Mail, I was getting prompted for a profile to use. So I had to close the already opened Firebird to open the new link. Someone on comp.windows.x.kde (Dennis Hansen) posted a wrapper script to get Mozilla 1.5a (about which a poster was complaining of the same problem) to not prompt for the profile (this script is a bit simpler than what's found at http://linux-sxs.org/internet_browsing/multimoz.html): #!/bin/bash MOZILLA=/usr/bin/mozilla if ($MOZILLA -remote "ping()"); then $MOZILLA -remote "openurl($1, new-tab)" else $MOZILLA $1 fi
I created a new file called /usr/bin/firebird, pasted that, changed the MOZILLA= line to MOZILLA=/opt/MozillaFirebird/MozillaFirebird (which is where I installed Firebird), and made the file executable. This has the added benefit of opening new links in new tabs. Now all is right with the Universe again. :-) Regards, Tim -- RedHat 8.0 Kernel 2.4.20-19.8, KDE 3.1.3, Xfree86 4.2.1 7:35am up 2 days, 13:33, 3 users, load average: 0.02, 0.07, 0.03 It's what you learn after you know it all that counts _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
