If you're using KDE 2.x, you can use the klipper utility. It's usually even
installed by default. This utility monitors the X clipboard for certain URL
patterns, and if it encounters one, a window pops up where you can choose:

"Open with Galeon"
"Open with Mozilla"
"Open with Netscape"
...
"Send URL"
"Send Page"

etc.

Also, if you use konsole as a terminal, you can just double-click on a URL and
the whole URL is selected automagically. This also works with GNOME's
terminals.

KDE works fine on FreeBSD, too :-)
