Implements the logic to read rules from ~/.dillo/rulesrc which define custom actions to handle a URL. Here is an example: action "Open with MPV" shell "mpv $url" action "Open with MPV (only audio)" shell "mpv --no-video $url" action "Open with Firefox" shell "firefox $url" The standard input and output is still redirected to the same file descriptor as Dillo. The commands are spawned in a forked process using the system() call, which uses the shell to expand any variable. In particular, the $url variable is set to the current URL being opened.
