Re: [Evolution] Browser ?




Evo startups Mozilla by default. I would like it to use another browser,
Firebird. How do I do this?

Yeah, the most requested FAQ once again. :)

Solution uses Mozilla, customizations for Firebird are mentioned, too.
As you are still using Evo 1.2.x just a note: You will need other
settins, when upgrading to Evol 1.4.x.

Evolution 1.2 / Gnome 1.4
-------------------------

Check your ~/.gnome/Gnome file. You need something like that:

[URL Handlers]
default-show=gnome-moz-remote --newwin "%s"

If there are http-show or similar entries, change them, too.


gnome-moz-remote %s
 will only open a new mozilla, when none running
 displays the URL in the current mozilla (old content overwritten)

gnome-moz-remote --newwin %s
 will only open a new mozilla, when none running
 displays the URL in a new mozilla window


I use the following default-show entry:

default-show=/home/guenther/bin/mozilla-remote.sh "%s"

With the attached mozilla-remote.sh script (must be executable) it acts
like the --newwin option, but displays the new URL in a new *tab* if
there is already a mozilla running.

I don't lose the displayed URL and can even click multiple URLs and see
them all in the same mozilla.

If you have a ~/.gnome/gnome-moz-remote file, check it, rename it or
plain delete it. You can change settings there too, although you won't
need it.


Firebird
--------

To use Firebird, simply adjust the 'mozilla-* %s' strings to read
'firebird %s' (or whatever your firebird executable is called).

To use Firebird with *Tabs*, have the attached 'firebird-remote.sh'
script in your path (or change the command to have the whole path) and
make the script executable. (Adjust the script, if the firebird
executable is not in your path).

char *t="\10pse\0r\0dtu\0  ghno\x4e\xc8\x79\xf4\xab\x51\x8a\x10\xf4\xf4\xc4";
main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1:
(c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}}
