I know that a lot of people use the shell() method of launching documents, but what about the transcript method:

   launch document "path/to/file.pdf"

Both methods will result in the document being opened with a designated program. Additionally, the launch command allows you to launch web sites before the common library (where revGoURL is located) has been loaded.

So is there any advantage of one over the other? Launch vs. Shell()? Launch vs. RevGoURL?

Charles,

use the shell() command.

For the mac call "open yourpath/yourfile.pdf"
For win32 call "start yourpath/yourfile.pdf"

I am not sure about the windows one, I am writting those from memory.

Is there a simple way to launch a PDF document for both the windows and Mac platform?
