On the Linux Guru side of things is there anyway to open / move metacard windows from Workspace to Workspace - keep getting nothing only to find that the window has opened in another workspace - great to have script control over this...

RE: Launching a url in a web browser on Linux...
Hi Is there a generic form of this as on Windows with the start command. Example: get shell (start quotetFileNamequote) above works with both url and normal paths and any type of file. I'm trying to develop a cross platform handler to do the same thing. Monte ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard
