I use the following commands in .urlview:
REGEXP (((https?|ftp|gopher)://|(mailto|file|news):)[^'
\t<>"]+|(www|web|w3)\.[-a-z0-9.]+)
COMMAND mozilla.sh %s > /dev/null 2>/dev/null &
and use the script mozilla.sh to start either a new instance of mozilla or
use and already open instance and just use a new tab:
#!/bin/sh
URL=$@
/opt/mozilla -remote "openurl($URL, new-tab)" || /opt/mozilla $URL
I didn't invent this nice solution, but got it from A. S. Budden over this
list. But it works perfectly for me.
