The current Linux commands used,
gnome-open
andkde-open
, aren't standardized, and I don't even havegnome-open
on my (Debian) Gnome 3 machine.I've also removed the statement about there being no standard way to open URLs on Linux, since
xdg-open
is supposed to work across all desktops and dates from 2006.
