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?
open system-settings. Open mime/applications/whatever submenu
(called 'Dateizuordnungen' in German).
application-xtroff-man
and
application-xtroff-man-compressed
should be the things you have to set. Click on 'embedded' and
choose KManPart
And that it is always shown in the embedded part.
We are talking about KDE here - not gnome. It should not be
necessary to fiddle with desktop files.
This is already set up that way. Except that x-troff-man-compressed
is grayed out because there's no file extension listed.
It's not greyed for me, and I just set both up that way, but KDE is
still opening man:foo with my default web browser, Firefox. KDE is
putting a decompressed copy in /var/tmp/kdecache-${username}/krun/ and
Firefox displays it ok, but I'd much rather be seeing it in Konqueror.
It only displays it here if there's no selection page (POSIX vs Linux
version of the man page; for example, "man:longjmp").
