urlview for DEBIAN
-----------------
I created the urlview package with some slight modifications on the
upstream sources. The most important is that debian's urlview will
read a system-wide configuration file. This allows the system administrator
to set a unified way to handle embedded URLs.
Note that using double quotes rather than single quotes in the COMMAND
might have nasty effects. Check urlview's manual page for more info on
this.
This release has changed the url-handler.sh to a version developped by
Martin Schulze <joey@debian.org>. It's now a bash shell script that will
try to use any of the mentioned programs. There is a configuration section at
the top of the file after the license statement. For each type of tag we
have
(www)prgs="/path/to/program1:TAG1 /path/to/program2:TAG2 ..."
The script will try to execute the first of those found. The TAG is
interpreted to check how this program is to executed. There are currently
three possible tags,
XW: The program works only under X
VT: Launch this program in the current terminal
XT: Launch a new xterm (if under X) and run the program there or do as in VT.
XTERM holds the name of the terminal program used. This can be changed to any
program of your liking but care should be taken so that it support the
standard -T option to set the title.
