15 This library was created to make it easier for application programmers to
16 include clickable URLs in their applications, about windows, etc.
17 Current solutions to this problem typically are to launch an ARexx script
18 or just support a few webbrowsers, with no room for configuration. This
19 leads to countless reinventions of the wheel (how many SendURLToBrowser.rexx
20 scripts do you have on your harddisk?).
22 This library solves the problem by giving application programmers a very
23 simple API to handle (one function) and the user gets configurability with
24 the included preferences program.
26 OpenURL was originally developed by Troels Walsted Hansen, et al. Since 2005
27 it is developed by an independent open source developer group. It is released
28 as a public domain software.
30 OpenURL is available for OS3, OS4, MorphOS and AROS.
32 The OpenURL project is hosted on SourceForge. Its project name is "openurllib".

45 2) Go to the "Binaries/<OS>" directory where <OS> is the directory
46 matching the operating system you want to install OpenURL for:
48 > cd OpenURL/Binaries/AmigaOS4
50 3) copy all files found in that <OS> directory to their respective
55 4) reboot and enjoy the new version ;)
