Not exactly answering your question directly, but I have in my .urlview:
REGEXP (((https?|ftp|gopher)://|(mailto|file|news):)[^'
\t<>"]+|(www|web|w3)\.[-a-z0-9.]+)
COMMAND ~/bin/mozilla.sh %s > /dev/null 2>/dev/null &
Where ~/bin/mozilla.sh looks like this:
#!/bin/bash
URL=$@
mozilla -remote "openurl($URL, new-tab)" || mozilla $URL
Can't remember who wrote this, think it was posted to the list a while
back, or maybe comp.mail.mutt
Anyway, this will open the url in a new tab in an already running
browser, or start a new browser if one isn't running. Solves the
problems with "" simply by having it in a script.
Hope that helps,
