CONFIGURATION
Without a configuration file, gnome-moz-remote will assume it should
use either Netscape or Mozilla. When starting a new web browser, it
will try to find a mozilla binary. If it finds one, it will use it.
If not, it will start netscape instead.
If you want to start a different browser instead of the default, create
a file named ~/.gnome/gnome-moz-remote with the following contents:
[Mozilla]
filename=netscape
NEEDS_TERM=false
NREMOTE=true
If the web browser needs a terminal, set NEEDS_TERM to true. If the
web browser understands the Netscape Remote Protocol,
http://www.netscape.com/newsref/std/x-remote.html
set NREMOTE to true. Otherwise, it should be false. As of this writ‐
ing, only Mozilla and Netscape support this protocol, although it would
be trivial to add support to other Open Source browsers.
Note that if you set NREMOTE to false, gnome-moz-remote will never try
to contact a currently running browser, but will always start a new
instance.
