set default rss feed handler?

How do I set a default rss feed handler in XFCE so that browsers like Chromium and Epiphany will activate the correct application (liferea) when clicking on a news feed?

Re: set default rss feed handler?

This needs to be done per-browser. There's no DE-provided variable that browsers can read from. Midori has this option in Edit>Preferences>Applications>News Aggregator. Firefox allows you to set your default news reader when you view the feed as a page, or Edit>Preferences>Applications>Web Feed.
