Platform::openWebBrowser

Hi,
I was reading the openWebBrowser function and realized there is no OSX/Linux counterpart, this is available for windows only. Is this true? How do I execute something similar in those OSs?


Luck!

I swear I remember them being in the OSX and Linux flavors of Torque last I looked. :looks:

I see platform::openWebBrowser in my version of Torque here:
x86UNIX, x86UNIXWindow.cc, ll763-816
MacCarb, macCarbWindow.cc, ll357-370

Use the grep -i, luke.

On another note, looking at the Linux flavor, I'm quite disappointed to see that the Linux version doesn't support the BROWSER environment variable.
