Q: Thunderbird extension: "open URL in VM..."

[Ulrich Windl]

Hi!

As it seems, there is a Thunderbird extension (Qubes attachments)
allowing to open an attachment in a VM, but I'd like to have an
extension that allows to open an URL in a VMs web browser easily, too.

Is there one already?

Regards,
Ulrich

I'm not aware of an actual Thunderbird extension for it, but you can set
it up yourself by following the instructions here, for example:

the text is slightly outdated by the fact that there is also the nice
command " qvm-open-in-dvm " - that is, I guess, what you want.
