Firefox 'url editor' implemented with xdotool

Posted Sun, 24 Jun 2007

You'll need xdotool and these 3 scripts for this example:

ffue (firefox url edit)
ffup (firefox url paste)
run-xterm (run an xterm my way)

Then just run 'ffue' and it'll open up vi with the current url split so you can edit it. Save+quit and it'll unsplit it and use ffup to go to the modified url.
