Prowling around the web, I found that the url I'm seeing is a "file

Since it works in Safari and not in Chrome, I suspect it may be an

thing.
I believe 'launch document' uses the Launch Services API - it might be
that needs a bit of patching to ensure it is using the latest and
greatest way of communicating file references. The Apple APIs have made
a move towards using URIs for most things these days so it could be that
the engine is using a 'legacy' API these days.
However the engine processes a launch document command is converting
the
normal filepath to this file reference url which apparently Chrome
doesn't
like. I think I will file a QCC report about it. Not sure it's really
a
bug since the file reference url is valid in Safari but would be nice
to
have a way to have the filepth not be converted to a file reference
url.
Given that Kay observed that 'launch document with' works, but 'launch
document' does not I suspect it should be easy to figure out. Please do
file a report :)
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
