Terry J. Reedy added the comment:
The Mac failure comes from this piece of code:
if sys.platform == 'darwin':
path = self.result[1]
if path.startswith(('www', 'file:', 'http:', https:')):
pass
else:
# Mac Safari insists on using the URI form for local files
self.result = list(self.result)
self.result[1] = "file://" + path
Before I do anything,
is the comment right about needing to add "file://" for Safari?
is Safari still the default and/or correct way to open a local file?
The code that opens the supplementary help file or url is elsewhere, but it
could be changed if outdated on the Mac.
