There is something about how is that handled internally at XChat FAQ:
21. What's the deal with opening URLs in XChat on Unix/Linux?
http://xchat.org/faq/#q221
As it seems to rely on "xdg-open" in first place, what it returns this
command? I.e.: xdg-open uri
When I run the above command, I get my default browser and the requested
URI (I think the same as you), so what kind of URI are you trying to load
from XChat? :-?
