There is no way for the browser to launch programs on the clients computer, this would be an inherit security vulnerability which is why browsers do not allow websites to do this.
The only way is like a firefox plugin that performs this... but not everyone uses firefox.

Everything else is done on the command line and edited with wingide or gedit. -Thadeus On Tue, Jan 5, 2010 at 10:52 AM, Werner F.
