[SOLVED] xfce4-terminal won't open URLs

Left-clicking on URLs won't open a new tab or launch the browser.

Enabling Use middle mouse click to open URLs works but I'd like to have this functionality bound to the mouse left-click instead. Is something wrong with exo-open here?

Ctrl + Left Click should work.

Re: [SOLVED] xfce4-terminal won't open URLs

is there a way to force these through a script i code?  i want to add an option to the browser.  i also hope the script gets control back when the browser exits so i can preserve some data and do cleanups at that time.  obviously, the URL has to be passed to the script somehow (arg 1 makes sense).
