xd-open-ng

An xdg-open replacement that uses Syndicate and PCRE pattern matching to open URIs.

There are two utilites, uri_runner and xdg-open; both expect to be able to connect to a shared Syndicate dataspace via a UNIX socket at $SYNDICATE_SOCK otherwise $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/dataspace. The xdg-open component has no other configuration. The uri_runner component is intended to be managed by the Syndicate server thru which it receives configuration, see uri_runner.pr as an example.

TODO

• Pattern back-references in commands
• Fallback commands?
