Fixing the telnet:// protocol handler in Firefox 1.5.0.2 (Linux)

I had some problems getting Firefox to accept/provide arguments to a protocol handler command entered in the about:config page [see previous post for about:config settings], but I have found a workaround, and posted a HOWTO document about it. See: HOWTO Enable Telnet URI Handling in Firefox.

The gripe here is that telnet://host.name:portnum/ URLs didn't work by default in Firefox. The HOWTO gives a fix.
