I have found a way to do it when running Gnome, but I don't know how in Enlightment, and I'd really prefer not to switch window managers. The OS is Mint 12.

Add the following line to the file $HOME/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list

[Default Applications]
x-scheme-handler/magnet=transmission-gtk.desktop

This registers the application transmission-gtk to handle magnet links.

  • This doesn't work, and isn't what I'd asked to do. I wanted to know how to open the files in Transmission when using Chrome, this just opened a blank new tab. I've since switched to using Firefox, which opens them correctly. – Nathan C. Tresch Oct 01 '12 at 00:08
