[kde-linux] akregator & firefox

[paul s]

thank you Kevin!

great explanation too, i really appreciate you taking the time to step 
through the process... going through it in the terminal i was able to 
understand what was available for each process that is running... fantastic!

attached is a little script that i point firefox to when clicking that 
rss icon in the location bar...

cheers
paul
