Re: [Evolution] URLs Misbehavin'

[Christopher Ness <nesscg mcmaster ca>]

For those using Ximian Desktop 2 (xd2) here's how to get things working
for you!

1. Open from the toolbar (top left) System -> Personal Settings
2. Click on "File Associations" under SYSTEM.
3. Click the "Add Service" button.
4. Description = "Web Browser"
5. Protocal = "http"
6. Program = ....  You have to choose this, use moz-remote or gunthers
script.  ;)

The script should be attached to this thread.

Cheers,
Chris
