Add an option "Open with Chrome instead of default browser". #26

Closed knu closed 12 years ago

I wanted this because I use Safari as my default browser but for using Google's services like Gmail I prefer Chrome because it's definitely optimal and integrated with my Google account.

Please consider merging this feature.

Thanks! Per-account browser settings would be nice.

There's also an application called Gmail Browser: http://willmore.eu/software/gmailbrowser/

It seems it only responds to the mailto protocol and lacks some essential features as a browser. But I like the concept and it would be great if Gmail Notifr can affiliate with or get integrated with such a dedicated browser.

I'll have a look. If we're lucky enough perhaps we can use the same way that you implemented this (use the app identifier).

This also reminded me the mailto protocol handler in current version is broken:)

@knu I've added per account browser support: ef180fd3c90cb27416c7fa943fb5603085f4060b:

Browsers supported include Safari, Google Chrome and Firefox. I guess some user would love this feature. Thanks for your contribution on which I was able to add this.
