'Open containing folder' in ROX - tiny hack for Mozilla

#1 Post by dejan555 »

Someone on IRC recently asked what application to choose when firefox offers "Open containing folder" in dialogue box
So I tried to choose rox on seamonkey 2.4.1 but it pops up error that file wasn't found because it adds file:// prefix
This is just a one-line workaround, just save this as script anywhere and then choose it as application for opening folder

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
rox $(echo "$1" | sed 's?file://??')

This could be added to /usr/bin/rox, so it appears in all puppies.

Definitely belongs there :)

There is another variant here:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
exec rox -U "$@"
