[Conkeror] contrib/run-conkeror

[John J Foerch]

Hi all,

  The following applies to *nix platforms.

  Apparently with new versions of xulrunner it no longer works to
symlink to xulrunner-stub, so people have been having to write launch
scripts to start conkeror.

  I pushed a script to the repository (contrib/run-conkeror) that can be
symlinked to.  It will chase its own symlink to find the conkeror
install location.  It will also attempt to find your xulrunner
installation by grepping through $HOME/.gre.d/*.conf and
/etc/gre.d/*.conf, and then launch conkeror.

  There is a slight launch-time hit because of searching for conkeror
and xulrunner.  Custom launch scripts with hardcoded paths will run
faster.

  To install conkeror by this method, after downloading/extracting
conkeror to somewhere on your file system, issue a command like the
following (adjusted for the specifics of your platform):

sudo ln -s /path/to/conkeror/contrib/run-conkeror /usr/local/bin/conkeror

  Patches & reports are welcome, so that we can improve this new
script.
