Moderator Linux-Dude Posts: 1187 Registered: 2006-11-23 | Some of you want to have the irc-client started by clicking on an irc://-link in Firefox/Epiphany. For this we must create a script:
~/.xchat2/xchat4browser
Then make it executable:
Start up Firefox/Epiphany and enter into the url-line about:config.
Mouse-right-click and choose New > Boolean.
Firefox/Epiphany > New boolean value: network.protocol-handler.external.irc
Firefox > Value: true
Epiphany > double-click on network.protocol-handler.external.irc to set it to true
Now we have to do a string:
Firefox/Epiphany > Mouse-right-click and choose New > String.
Firefox/Epiphany > New String Value: network.protocol-handler.app.irc
Firefox/Epiphany > Value: ~/.xchat2/xchat4browser
Now test it by entering irc://irc.freenode.net/paldo into your url-line of Firefox/Epiphany. |
