Because I don't want the file dialog asking me to manually choose save it or cancel the download...

Chrome iirc popularised automatic downloading for all file types but I'm using Firefox.

What browser do you use that has a "force inline viewing of downloads rather than downloading them" option? I'd like that

Edit: wait, this server doesn't actually send the content-disposition:attachment header. Why doesn't Firefox download this to /tmp/mozilla_${USER}0 and open the default viewer as it does for other files that aren't downloads?!
