In KDE, I'm very used to simply type "man:foo" and have the man page
of "foo" pop up immediately in Konqueror without having to open a
terminal or anything.
However, since I installed Chromium and making it my default browser,
now "man:" brings up Chromium instead. That doesn't work; instead of
displaying the man page, it downloads the *.bz2 from the local file
system :-/
How can I set Konqueror to be the program that handles KDE's "man:"
command?
Umm, my default browser is Firefox, but when I open Konqueror and type
man:ls I get to see the man page.
But if I launch using Alt+F2, it opens Firefox.
I think this needs some xdg tweaking, using xdg-mime. I don't know the
type of URL for man:, else could have posted the command.
