Hello,
Noob Alert. Just joined hoping someone can help with creating a Desktop Entry to launch a new Firefox instance with multiple tabs. The -new-window part is easy but I can't find anything about multiple tabs.
If I do something like "Exec=firefox %U -new-window url1 url2"
The new window opens with only url1. Url2 opens but in a preexisting window.
I have tried inserting spaces , : ; - etc. in between. I have tried "-new-tab" and quoting the urls and using "%u" vs "%U" Most give the same result or open the home page or do nothing at all.
I really don't want to setup a Desktop Entry to launch a different profile to accomplish this task. Any help will be most appreciated.
Also if there is a more novice friendly tutorial / site than:
that would be great to know.
Thanks in advance.
