clagrange doesn't open https urls in browser

I don't have much experience with lagrange (I used to use amfora) so please be patient. When I open a https link in Lagrange it opens in qutebrowser as it should. But when I follow a https link in clagrange nothing happens - the page isn't opened.

So how do I configure clagrange to open https links in my favorite browser?

I really like TUI interfaces and maybe I'll switch to clagrange because it supports gemini, gopher and finger (and some others I guess) in one browser. So any help would be very appreciated.

It doesn't really answer your question but, i personally use a web-to-gemini proxy to browse https urls in the gemini browser (it will render the webpage as gemtext, which can be impractical to read for some webpages), i use levior, but there are other proxies as well:

In lagrange (not sure about clagrange), you can right-click a link and select "Open link in default browser", and that probably relies on the xdg settings on linux. I'll try clagrange, looks cool.

Looking at Lagrange's `openInDefaultBrowser` function, it unfortunately does not have an implementation for the terminal.

To fix this, you'd probably want to configure some shell command that opens the appropriate (TUI?) browser. I'll make a note of adding such a configuration option in a future release.

@skyjake That would be awesome! Thanks for your great work!

May be you can use xdg-open?

@ibannieto It seems that this functionality is not built into clagrange. Hopefully @skyjake will add an option to set a specific browser for opening web links soon.
