I have a slightly different approach to this problem. I have a small wish
script that gets the current selection:
---- cut here ----
#!/usr/bin/wish
wm withdraw .
if [catch {set select [selection get -selection CLIPBOARD]}] {
if [catch {set select [selection get -selection PRIMARY -type STRING]}] {
set select ""
}
}
puts $select
exit 0
---- cut here ----
I have this script saved as "getsel" in my path, and then I use the following
menu item:
(,(_"Navigate") (system "openURL \"$(getsel)\" &"))
where openURL is a script that invokes a command to open the URL given on the
command line.
You could replace getsel with an appropriate zenity command line (if you have
gnome) to get the effect you want. something like:
(,(_"Navigate") (system "openURL \"$(zenity --entry --text URL:)\" &"))
