Yes.

xdg-open is from xdg-utils, not in the book.

I installed xdg-utils, and got xdg-open in /usr/bin, but even reinstalling 
Xsane, no option worked in XSane "Help" Menu and it even crashed.

Reinstalling without the "netscape" sed, I got help working, but only after

1. ln -sv midori /usr/bin/netscape (netscape points to some browser)  
2. removing ~/.sane/xsane directory (configurations of user), so cleaning 
something which prevented XSane help from finding "netscape", because it was 
somehow recorded that the browser for help could not be found.

But still a problem remained: option F2 of XSane Help menu, which is for 
"driver documentation" cannot find the proper html file. I searched the whole 
hd for it and it is not there. The error message appears in the help browser, 
in my case, midori, to which netscape points. Why this file is not prduced I 
cannot yet understand

[]s,
Fernando
