In short, I love the functionality of Browser Tamer and would absolutely love to also have it on Linux.

I split my time between Linux (Fedora in my case) and Windows and often wish I had Browser Tamer's capabilities in Fedora but haven't been able to find any software to provide equivalent capabilities.

From what I can tell, it should be reasonably possible to parse available browsers by checking for installed .desktop files with either x-scheme-handler/http or x-scheme-handler/https in the MimeType value. Unfortunately, I don't know any C++ so have very little idea how Browser Tamer is currently implemented and whether that would transfer over or not.

Thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately majority of the functionality is system related and Windows specific in this case. I think the only piece that can be shared is UI for configuration, but everything else is completely different in Windows/Mac/Linux.
