Bug Description
When I highlight an URL (in konversation for exemple), Klipper shows a pop-up asking what I want to do (open with Konqueror, Send URL with Kmail...). But when I choose "Open in Firefox" nothing happens (of course I have Firefox installed). When I look at klipper configuration the "Open in Firefox" entry is : ps x |grep -q '[f]irefox' && firefox -remote openURL(%s, new-window) || firefox %s
Am I alone ?
Thank you.
Kubuntu 8.10
KDE 4.1.3
Klipper 0.9.7

Ok, I've found the solution (with some help ;) ).
Just change "ps x |grep -q '[f]irefox' && firefox -remote openURL(%s, new-window) || firefox %s" by "ps x |grep -q '[f]irefox' && firefox -remote 'openURL(%s, new-window)' || firefox %s" (without the quote).
Changing "new-window" by "new-tab" is also a good idea I think.
