The open link function works once you've defined what the default browser is @ XFCE level (ie, within XFCE configuration ). I had failed to find Terminal (as opposed to gnome-terminal) before. But, sure enough, there it is in the ports collection if you only look with a capital T. The option to specify both web browsing and e-mail preferences appears in the [Edit]/[Applications] dialog of Terminal.

For whatever reason, the file .gconf/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/%gconf.xml in my home directory contained an incorrect specification for firefox. It needs to point to the right place. -- David Benfell, LCP [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Resume available at http://www.parts-unknown.org/ NOTE: I sign all messages with GnuPG (0DD1D1E3). pgpmu0sDVZGFc.pgp Description: PGP signature

What's the secret to gnome-terminal open link?
Hello all, I would really like the open link function to work under gnome-terminal. But I can't find any relevant configuration and a Google search comes up empty. It worked out of the box under Ubuntu, opening up a new tab in Firefox. That's what I would like it to do under FreeBSD. So what or where is the secret?
