Q3A protocol and Qconnect

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.quake3 (More info?)

Hi!
I used to play Quake 3 on Windows but some time ago I have installed Linux
and now I play only on this OS.
My favourite mod is Excessive Plus - I used to connect to servers by
application called "Qconnect" just clicking on link ( like
q3a://81.169.137.22:27972/ ) in my browser.
Is there any program which works similiar in Linux environment or is there
any solution to connect to servers not using the built-in ( in game )
search browser?

Greetings! 😀

P.S. Sorry for my English 😀
