ROX URI handling

January 15, 2011 — BarryK

Jemimah reported about ROX URI handling:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=63400&start=150

I have setup /root/Choices/URI as explained by Jemimah.

Puppy has /usr/local/bin/xdg-open as a symlink to defaulthandler, however I have applied Jemimah's suggestion and now xdg-open is a script:

#!/bin/bash

case "$1" in 

        '') exit

                ;;

        *://*) exec rox -U "$1"

                ;;

        *@*.*) exec rox -U "mailto:${1}"

                ;;

        *) exec rox "$1"

                ;;

esac

The script defaulthandler really needs to be rewritten, but will leave that for another day.
