We're not trying to do that sort of thing with Growl, it's not within the scope of the project. This would be considered feature/scope creep I'd also be curious as to how many would actually understand and/or use such functionality versus the consternation it might generate. OK, now I got it *g* Th...

It's not about that, it's about scope. I see. You mean that the browser pops up suddenly and the user gets irritated? Well, for me it would be no problem because all http-Growl-messages are being sent by me. Technically, I think that a "[x] enable URL opening" on per-application-basis&quo...

Then no, Growl does not and will not provide this functionality. Ack. But I guess something like "[x] open http-URLs in messages in your browser" might be very cool for a number of things in OS X. Not just for my problem now ... A "bad" software cannot use this for illegal thing...

URL -> Growl-Message -> $BROWSER starts URL

Hi! Is it reasonable/possible, that Growl can start the default web browser with an URL provided in a Growl-message? Growl has to parse the message and if the format is OK/matched, start a new tab in the default browser with the URL given. What needs to be done for this feature? Is it possible at al...

Make URLs klickable

Hi! Maybe there is a possibility but maybe not (I'm new to Mac and very new to the very GREAT tool Growl): Is there a feature (or a feature-request), where Growl detects URLs in the message body and converts them to a klickable URL where my preferred browser starts?
