the Desktop using drag/drop.
Rufus, you seem to be referring to opening a _file_ or _alias_ (what we
on the Windows world known as a "shortcut") with an alternate program.
(By the way, Windows also has the "open with" feature at the file
level). Wolfgang was referring to opening an HTML link from within
Seamonkey, which is a different problem.
I'm referring to both, actually. In OS X (and I'm thinking Win as
well...) you can drag a URL out of the navigation bar or anywhere on a
web page and onto the Desktop to create an Alias (the "link") - from
there you can simply cntrl+click (right click) and get and Open With
contextual menu that will allow you to open that "link" with any browser
installed on your machine by simply choosing the one you wish - this
would be the way to do it without an add-on and using drag and drop, as
previously suggested elsewhere.
But it *would* be really nice to see this ability contained within SM,
seeing as it is a feature of the OS X interface itself. I only recently
discovered that you can do this within Safari if you enable Developer
Menu in Safari Prefs - which also gets you the ability to invoke browser
spoofing.
...I'm becoming more and more interested in Safari.
