I'm not sure if this is helpful or not, because I don't know what Vince is
really trying to do, or if he *has* to use DCOP.
But if this helps any, I came across this the other day on accident:
kfmclient --commands
You can do a rather fascinating number of things through kfmclient, including
opening a new tab in an existing Konqeror window.
kfmclient newTab 'url'
kfmclient exec .
Single quotes work as well as ticks ( ' ), he could do something like:
kfmclient newTab "$p"
I have almost no idea what kfmclient is or how it is supposed to be used, but
it doesn't seem to cause any harm. Maybe it would work for Vince.
