Make sure that you've read the configuration wiki page first.
Amfora allows you to set the command to be run when following links that are non-Gemini URLs. For example, you may want `mailto:` links to be opened with your email client, or `magnet:` links to be opened with your torrent software.
[url-handlers] # Allows setting the commands to run for various URL schemes. # E.g. to open FTP URLs with FileZilla set the following key: # ftp = ['filezilla'] # You can set any scheme to 'off' or '' to disable handling it, or # just leave the key unset. # # DO NOT use this for setting the HTTP command. # Use the http setting in the "a-general" section above. # # NOTE: These settings are overrided by the ones in the proxies section. # # The best way to define a command is using a string array. # Examples: # magnet = ['transmission'] # foo = ['custom-browser', '--flag', '--option=2'] # tel = ['/path/with spaces/in it/telephone'] # # Note the use of single quotes, so that backslashes will not be escaped. # Using just a string will also work, but it is deprecated, and will degrade if # you use paths with spaces. # This is a special key that defines the handler for all URL schemes for which # no handler is defined. # It uses the special value 'default', which will try and use the default # application on your computer for opening this kind of URI. other = 'default'
As mentioned above, the settings in this section are overridden by the ones in the `[proxies]` section. More information regarding this can be found in the proxying wiki page.
