Launcher

Firefox should have a way to launch an external application on a link from the context menu, but it doesn't, so I made a extension: launcher-1.0.xpi. The source is at http://elder-gods.org/~larry/repos/launcher/.

It doesn't have a user-friendly dialogue box to configure it yet. To use it you create a file called link-handlers.js in your firefox profile directory. It should contain a javascript hash table like this one:

{"seeurl" : "gnome-terminal -x sh -c \"echo url: %r | less\" ",
 "links"  : "gnome-terminal -x links %r "  }

update: I have a new version, launcher-1.1.xpi. It doesn't have the newlines problem and works on Firefox 3.

Awesome

I found this at a Korean grocery store:

It contains the "seven foods of Deuteronomy 8:8", which are apparently wheat, barley, raisins, honey, figs, pomegranates, and olive oil. On the back it quotes Deuteronomy, which says "A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive oil and honey." It's actually not bad. Tastes like a hippy energy bar, but with more dried fruit than usual. The ingredients are: brown rice syrup, organic brown rice, figs, organic wheat flakes, organic barley flakes, organic raisins, organic honey, almond butter, extra virgin olive oil, raspberry fruit powder, pomegranate concentrate, and sea salt. I can't think of anything I could say that would make this product any more amusing, so I'll just leave it at that.
