expose-url - adds an address from a file *.url to the list "Url Exposition" of tint2 (provided by Starbuntu)

expose-url <file *.url>

The Starbuntu program expose-url allows to expose any address from a file *.url under the icon with the title "URL Exposition" on the tint2 taskbar so that it can be quickly accessed. The program is also offered in the context menu of any file *.url under "Expose Url".

After calling up the program with the favoured file *.url as parameter initially the favicon of the corresponding address will be converted to a PNG file which serves as the icon of the desired entry. If the favicon doesn't exist a file select box pops up in order to select an appropriate icon. In case of canceling the box the program chooses the icon of the "URL Exposition".

In the next step you define either manually or by means of the address specific application shortlist with which special application the address shall be opened. In case of canceling this query the program chooses the default application for this address type.

Finally you can decide under which list identifier the address shall be integrated in the Url Exposition list.

The entry created in that way in the "URL Exposition" later can be modified or deleted after clicking on "Edit".
