I'm trying to launch an external application (let's say midnight commander) by clicking on a link in a webpage. Of course, that is not permitted for security reasons, however this app is only supposed to run locally. I was thinking about two possible solutions:
- Add an extension to firefox that manages a certain mimetype which launches my custom bash script, which in turn launches midnight commander
- Build an application that uses webkit or xul and try to launch an application when clicking on certain links
Any advice?
