Ok I've been able to test the new patch now and I'm not sure that os.startfile 
is going to work. I've been able to get os.startfile() to open a specified 
browser (>>> os.startfile("chrome.exe", "open")), however, the function does 
not allow additional arguments(>>> os.startfile("chrome.exe", "open", 
"www.yahoo.com")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: startfile() takes at most 2 arguments (3 given))) so not even a url 
will be allowed to be specified as the code is written in the patch let alone 
specifying new window or new tab. Is this an error on os.startfile's part? The 
documentation for it seems to indicate that it should take multiple inputs. I 
don't have much experience with C to be able to find out figure out what the 
rest of your patch accomplished.
