Description Jimmy Henderson 2010-01-03 13:42:15 UTC
I have opened a html-file and will show this file as a preview in firefox.
When I use the "world-Icon" or Browser Icon bluefish stop the process.

best regards
Jim

Hi, you can open bluefish with a terminal and copy the debug when you press the "World Icon", I think with you dont have configured your default browser for bluefish.

Thank

hmmm... you use windows!, how can you see any mode the debug, but I sure dont have configurated your default browser.

Hello Fabio,

I find this command in bluefish : firefox -remote 'openURL(%p)' || firefox '%p'&.
The Program path on my computer is C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox3/firefox.exe.

Have you an idea?

regards
Jim

I have test different settings, but bluefish stops operation. It helps only shutdown program bluefish with 'Strg&Alt+Del'.

No idea, whats going wrong.

Jim

Replace 'firefox' in the command by 'C:/Program Files/Mozilla
Firefox3/firefox.exe'. What I'm not sure about is, if the '||' construct works in Windows. I guess we need to use the registry under Windows to make this work.

I will check the freeze later.

Sorry, it doesn't work with this path. Same behaviour, program hangup.
Thanks for help!

regards, Jim.

The "-remote" command line option no longer appears to be valid. Maybe we should remove it from the defaults.

Comment 9 Daniel Leidert 2010-01-11 21:22:41 UTC
We might use something like winpidgin_shell_execute()/winpidgin_notify_uri() from pidgin/win32/gtkwin32dep.c.
Comment 10 Olivier Sessink 2010-01-11 22:09:34 UTC
g_spawn is supposed to work on Windows. Is none of the external commands / filters / outputbox functional?
Comment 11 Olivier Sessink 2010-02-06 15:23:38 UTC
I found somewhere that gspawn-win32-helper.exe needs to be in the PATH to make this work. Can anybody check this on windows?

If this helps, how can we make sure that we have gspawn-win32-helper.exe in the PATH? Can we do something with the installer?
Comment 12 Olivier Sessink 2010-08-16 21:03:13 UTC
This should be fixed in 2.0.1, can you confirm this?
Comment 13 Tobias Mueller 2010-10-04 19:12:21 UTC
We believe this to be fixed. Please reopen if this is not the case.
