Grab xcb from
ftp://www.x.org/contrib/utilities/ and use it in a
script like this:
#!/bin/sh
## Note: not fully tested
url=`xcb -S 0 && xcb -p 0`
if [ "$url" ] ; then
netscape -remote openURL\("$url"\) >/dev/null 2>&1 \
|| exec netscape "$url" &
else
exec netscape &
fi
exit 0
Then just call this script from a button.
