Opera and Xchat

[vakkotaur]

For my personal convenience.

From the xchat forum, but easier for me to find again now:

Go to Settings > Advanced > URL handlers, there you can customize the menu that appears when you right click an URL. Here are a list of commands that do the various things that one might wish:

opera -remote 'openURL(%s)'
opera -remote 'openURL(%s,new-page)'
opera -remote 'openURL(%s,new-window)'
opera %s
mozilla -remote 'openURL(%s)'
mozilla -remote 'openURL(%s,new-tab)'
mozilla -remote 'openURL(%s,new-window)'
mozilla %s

Note that opera calls it 'new-page' and mozilla 'new-tab'. The commands without the '-remote' switch start a new instance, I didn't check for the exact behavior for when you start a new instance if one is already running, or if you use the -remote switch when no instance is running.
