That was my original, but someone, either here on on the KDE list tweaked it with: exec kfmclient openURL "http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=$dictWord" which causes a dictionary lookup of the meaning of the word selected. I found this more useful. I keep meaning to make this into an application which runs the selection through any one of a number of 'net services (dictionary, search, spellcheck, yellow pages, whois), but I haven't got around to it. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
