I was going to suggest something like that. Maybe a shift+click on a url to add it to a file, and then use dmenu to either have surf go to the url (don't know how that would work, this is theoretical), or spawn a new instance of surf that opens in the new url. I did something like this with uzbl a while back, but instead of sending the url to a file, I had dmenu list which uzbl instances were open with xprop. The only problem was I never figured out how to focus the selected instance. I'll have to look at it again later. -- Jake Todd // If it isn't broke, tweak it!
