    keyboard shortcuts to launch browser and go to specific website

    I am trying to figure out how to use a keyboard shortcut that will launch firefox and open the page dictionary dot com, for example.

    I would like to use another keyboard shortcut that will launch firefox and open wikipedia.

    I am using kubuntu 13.10 and have tried to use system settings, shortcuts and gestures, but with no success.

    One way to do it...

    Right click the K-Menu button > Edit applications.




    The KDE Menu editor should start.

    Add a new menu entry to start your web browser to the wanted page - with the shortcut key.




    More of the KDE Menu Editor:
    K-Menu > Applications > Help
    or KDE Menu Editor > Help > KDE Menu Editor Handbook
