On this page you can customise which external helper applications
Mahogany uses for different action that it does not perform itself.
- Open URLs with
Mahogany will use the program listed here to open URLs embedded in email messages.
If you want to use Lynx as your Web browser you should prefix it with ``xterm
-e'' under Unix in order to open Lynx in a separate window. For example, you
may use XTERM -T LYNX -E LYNX.
- URL browser is Netscape
If the browser used to open URLs belongs to the family of Netscape programs,
tick this box. Instead of calling a new browser each time, Mahogany will tell
the already running Netscape process to load the new URL. Also, don't forget
to clear it if you use another browser - otherwise it will fail to start up.
- Help viewer
The program listed here will be used to view the online help system in HTML
format. Any simple HTML viewer can be used here.
- Help viewer is Netscape
Just like the option for the URL browser, this will take talk to an already
running Netscape process instead of opening a new one each time.
- External editor
This is the external editor which will be invoked if you choose ``External
editor...'' from the compose view menu. You should use the ``%s'' characters
to indicate the place where the file name will be inserted in the command line
(if you don't do it, an implicit ``%s'' will be added to the end of the string).
- New Mail Command
The line in this field will be executed whenever Mahogany receives new mail.
This can be used to play a sound to notify the user of incoming messages, or
do something else to alert him.
