Re: Is there someone working on a gnome_help_display replacement?

[Kristof Vansant <de_lupus pandora be>]

I made this little program to do some testing (and to learn C so sorry
for any programming errors)

./gnome-uri-opener "mailto:foo somewhere com"
./gnome-uri-opener "http://www.gnome.org";

This command will open the default program that handles the uri.

cc `pkg-config --cflags --libs glib-2.0 gconf-2.0` gnome-uri-opener.c -o
gnome-uri-opener
