Update to accept the new google:// links, in addition to the cpan:// links:

Replace the section for the perlmonks URLs with this code:

# URL to use for links into perlmonks, cpan, and google
my($perlmonksURL_base) = 'http://www.perlmonks.org/';
my($perlmonksURL_node) = 'http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node=';
my($perlmonksURL_id)   = 'http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=';
my($perlmonksURL_cpan) = 'http://search.cpan.org/search?mode=module&qu
+ery=';
my($perlmonksURL_google) = 'http://www.google.com/search?q=';

And update part of the launchBrowser sub with this code (also fixed those escaped slashes...):

    printMessage("\n*Launching browser for node $node...");
    if    ($node =~ s,^id://,,)     { $url = $perlmonksURL_id     . $n
+ode; }
    elsif ($node =~ s,^node_id=,,)  { $url = $perlmonksURL_id     . $n
+ode; }
    elsif ($node =~ s,^cpan://,,)   { $url = $perlmonksURL_cpan   . $n
+ode; }
    elsif ($node =~ s,^google://,,) { $url = $perlmonksURL_google . $n
+ode; }
    elsif ($node =~ m,^http:,)      { $url = $node;                   
+     }
    elsif ($node =~ s,^/+,,)        { $url = $perlmonksURL_base   . $n
+ode; }
    else                            { $url = $perlmonksURL_node   . $n
+ode; }
