This module provides a Perl binding for url handling in the GNOME (1.x) environment (http://www.gnome.org). It can handle various types of URLs including http, https, ftp, file, info, man, ghelp, and possibly others.
The commands used to view different types of URLs are determined by the user's gnome configuration (most likely stored in ~/.gnome/Gnome).
See http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/libgnome/gnome-gnome-url.html for more information.
To install this module type the following:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
This module requires these other modules and libraries:
gnome-config command (or manually writing part of the Makefile.PL)
libgnome
libgnomesupport
If you encounter any problems with installation, please don't hesitate to contact me, mark@sporkstorms.org, with the necessary details (error messages, libgnome version, perl version, OS, etc). Comments, suggestions, questions, requests, etc are more than welcome as well. =)
