Lubuntu 24-10

I've got a PDF with multiple links in the form of 'textedit://<file path>:<line#>:<column#>'  I've got a Python script ready to parse and process the textedit string (passed as a command-line argument) but I haven't discovered how to invoke the script.  The only response is "No default application for 'textedit://<yada-yada>'

>From the help text:
Links are highlighted by red frames (if enabled in the settings). Left-click on a link to show the linked page or open the linked URL in the default browser (if enabled in the settings). Middle-click on a link to show the linked page in a new tab. Hovering over a link displays its destination as a tool tip.

Alas, I can't find anything in the help text or the man page that explains how to set up a "default browser" much less a "default application."
