2012-08-01 13:08:08 robiwan description Since Version 0.4.8 URL link handling hast changed. Because of usering function exo_execute_preferred_application_on_screen (category, uri, NULL, NULL, screen, &error) instead of function exo_url_show_on_screen (uri, NULL, screen, &error) in prior versions, the program to oben a link is defined by the category in the terminal instead of letting this desission to the exo_... function. This results in opening file:// URL in WebBrowser instead of TextEditor (like in 0.4.7). This reduces usibility dramaticaly. I would suggest du give the old function call back! REPRODUCE: try the following in version 0.4.7 and 0.4.8 type "file:///etc/hosts" and do a mouse over middle klick Since version 0.4.8 URL link handling hast changed.

Alternatively there should be a additional category "TextEditor" defined in the terminal code to handle file:// URLs.
