Hi,

after browsing your serverlist I thought I might be handy to have something for linux people to launch ET from firefox. That's what I did (nothing fancy, but cheap):

CODE

#!/bin/sh

#
# etlaunch.sh launches ET from splatterladder.com
#

ET="/usr/games/bin/et"
SERVER=`echo ${1} | cut -d "/" -f 3`

${ET} +connect ${SERVER}



You may have to adjust ${ET} to fit your ET installation.

Make this script executable:

CODE

chmod 755 etlaunch.sh



Then type "about:config" in firefox as URL, an add 2 new variables by clicking right mouse, selecting "New":

The first one is of type "boolean":
network.protocol-handler.external.et

Value is "true".

The second one is of type "String":
network.protocol-handler.app.et

use the path to etlaunch.sh as value

That's it. Just click on the connect button in the serverlist and et should start.

Cheers,

BeaTtheMeaT
