The Portland project at freedesktop.org is doing this: http://portland.freedesktop.org/wiki/Portland It's still quite new though, I don't know how many linuxes include it (Ubuntu 7.10 does at least). The command-line interface is very simple. Just do: system( "xdg-open /my/directory/path" ); And it opens the specified file in the user's preferred application for files of that type. For a directory, you'll probably get Nautilus on a Gnome machine. There's a DBUS interface as well.
