Any chance of getting that "open in external browser" integrated with Dillo?
Open in external program, you mean? There are patches for that. More than one person has written patches to make such thing work. I have written one to get it working, but it was a quick big hack.
Look in the archive of the list. Subject ``viewing non-web files.''
I thought Todd Slater meant something like Konqueror does. Konqueror has a whole list of open in mozilla, open in galeaon, open in opera (depending on what you have installed on your system) under the file menu. It will spawn a new browser and open the current page in it. Sometimes that's supposed to be handy if a certain page doesn't render correctly.
That's exactly it Ivo. I have Dillo set as my default browser so I don't have to wait half an hour for Firefox to open when I click a link in other apps, but sometimes I need to use FF anyway. There is a patch for this out there, but I think you can only configure one alternate browser. And I can never remember how to apply the patch, or where I left it, so I spend some time figuring that out. I thought enough people might find it useful to include it by default. Todd
