Hi, Going over KF5 code to adapt to OS X/MacPorts, I came across invocations of xdg-open . That's the XDG (Freedesktop standard) equivalent to our own open command, and it's part of port:xdg-utils . It's not dysfunctional on OS X (it just opened a few documents in the epiphany browser for me; probably a fallback), but I have no idea how one configures the associations (through KDE itself maybe?), and the port hasn't been maintained for over 2 years. It also blocks, whereas xdg-open on Linux launches the intended application and then exits.
Question : should I replace xdg-open with our own open **where it is used to open a document in the associated application**? There's however also a case where xdg-open is used in a shebang expression to make .desktop files executable. Suggestions regarding what to do with that are appreciated - is that supposed to work? Other question: Does port:hunspell indeed get its dictionaries from /System/Library/Spelling as I see assumed in one KF5 source file?
