Make it easier to set Auto-URLs

Issue #13 new
Former user created an issue

Current way to set up Auto-URLs:

Copy the URL, open BrowswerChooser2, go into options, open Auto-URLs, click Add, paste the URL and then remove anything after the primary site name, then add an "" so it applies to all pages at the site, then select the right browser from a drop down, then press OK. 10 steps*.

What about letting the user use a SHIFT-CLICK or CTRL-CLICK on the selected browser to both select that browser and also set up the default to that site to be that browser in future? It could add the site name followed by an * (for all pages at the site) to the AutoURL list and link to the selected browser. 1 step.

I know which one would be easiest for me!

    Indeed, this need to be better. I don't like hiding it like that however - it is not discoverable. I am going to add it to a context menu along with a few other features..

    Another possible addition to this feature is to save URL and Browser of last click through and use that information as defaults for next time ADD Auto URLs is clicked from options dialog. This will save all the copying but leave masking URL up to users.
