I thought I was replying to Chris Green, who did *not* get the whole file list 
as parameter for the script. The behaviour you described is what's expected 
with "%U". From the link I posted earlier:
| %u		A single URL. Local files may either be passed as file: URLs or as file 
path.
| %U	A list of URLs. Each URL is passed as a separate argument to the 
executable program. Local files may either be passed as file: URLs or as file 
path.
