The (really!) long way?
Authored by: Krioni on Feb 06, '04 09:45:34AM
Wow. Or you could just use the actual 'open' command. Type

man open
in the Terminal. It opens a file the same way the Finder would, but also lets you 'open' URLs, specify an app, or whatever. No need for "poor man's open" I think.

Oh really? To think that I hadn't noticed. Thanks so much for open-ing my eyes. Now I can go off and recreate some other wheels.

Sheesh...
