Nov 30, 2005 11:27am Volker 1 Script's Author	Jonatron: I will fix it as soon as i find some time. The following types of links are supported reight now. news:news.group.name news://nntp.host/news.group.name #nntp.host will be discarded anyways But what i read in http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1738.html ( 3.7. NNTP ) makes me think that the second URI Scheme should be 'nntp'. As i said, i will fix it sooner or later. Francis: Of course it only works on links. No greasemonkey script will affect urls directly types into the address bar.
