Hi, what about this solution to the help browser problem: make it a plugin (or module). You could make a plugin for each variant. One plugin would start user-configurable web browser Second would run GtkXmHtml Third would run gnome help browser (if it uses html) The plugins would register under <help>/... and the user would select a preferred one in setup. If the configured one is not found, the first registered is used instead. I hope that this is solution that would work for everyone. Regards, Edheldil
