Quick one for you Guenther,

        I really like your script, I really prefer Mozilla to open up a new tab
instead of a window. But one problem I run into, when testing the
script, if no Mozilla windows are present the script fails, it only runs
fine if one Moz window already exists. Here is the error I get:

[mathieu localhost bin]$ ./mozilla-remote.sh
 
Gnome-CRITICAL **: file gnome-moz-remote.c: line 645
(mozilla_remote_commands):
assertion `window != 0' failed.
[mathieu localhost bin]$

        What can I do to fix this?

        Mathieu
