I'm designing a page for personal use to run as a "startup page" au lieu of my current default tabs and startup programmes
It was mostly an exercise in remembering HTML, and creating a "bookmarks page", but now I'm wondering if there is a method by which one can launch an app or document from a webpage.
For example, I'd want links to gedit and pidgin, off the bat, but I would also probably want a couple of my commonly used "organisation" spreadsheets, too.
Is there a method I can use to do this?
In case it matters, which I guess it will:
The page won't be used outside of my account on my own computer.
