If it works for you then no, xdg-open is a very simple script which will detect if your running enlightenment and then call enlightenment-open, or will check if your running kde and will call kde-open in that case because generally this is whats available on your system. The only thing you really have to worry about is if your package manager updates xdg-utils then it might remove the symlink. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
