Follow-up Comment #3, bug #34490 (project gnustep):
>GWorkspace
i don't think these APIs should depend on GWorkspace (i don't have it) and the
idea of having to wrap any linux app in existence ... sounds not so bright.
>a. not work on any system without xdg-open
AFAIK all linux distributions in the last few years have shipped it, and even
if it isn't there .. is just a fallback
>b. will prevent the code building on mswindows (no system function)
an ifdef will fix that - there is no xdg-open on windows anyway.
> NSTask
i don't see a value in using a more complicated and problematic API in order
to ensure portability to a platform where xdg-open doesn't run anyway. i'm
sure windows has some native APIs to open file and URLs and this can be added
as an #else later on
