Thank you. That clearly has the source. Are you of the opinion that this should be added to Sage, like myself? If so, any ideas where best to put it? Reading the docs, it says these scrips should go on the end of the path, so if system versions exists (as they seem to be on most platforms), they are used instead of the versions in that package. That means creating a new directory, something like SAGE_ROOT/local/bin-end putting those scrips there, and putting that on the end of the path, after SAGE_ROOT/local/bin It appears one needs to add all the scripts, as xdg-open depends on another script, so one can't simply use just xdg-open. I'm not sure how William feels about adding another package in spkg/standard. I get the feeling he is not keen, but I'm not sure how to avoid this one, as some of the scripts assumed in Sage do not exist on Solaris 10.
