Is there a reason you couldn't just rename the file containing the url to .txt so Firefox will recognize it as a plain text file, open it in Firefox and then do ctrl+A, ctrl+C, ctrl+l, and ctrl+v to copy and paste it to the address bar? Admittedly, I use Firefox as my primary browser, but this is how I handle pretty much anything that requires copy-and-pasting from the console to Firefox. Sadly, Firefox tends to treat plain-text files that don't end in .txt as binary files unless its something a web browser is designed to parse(e.g. if I wanted to copy and past a bit of source code, Firefox would just try downloading the file if I tried opening a .cpp or .sh file from my local filesystem without renaming to .txt first). _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
