Hi pharoers,

Is it possible to select a file and open it with an external application ? For example, I need to open a pdf file.

How can I do that ?

Thank you for the help, Jannik

Or use NativeBoost (e.g. run C code that does what you want). But Camillo's solution is certainly easier to implement.

Looks like OSProcess is not your best bet. Check NBWin32Shell instead (in NativeBoostWin32) (Smalltalk at: #NBWin32Shell) shellBrowse: 'http://localhost:', self port asString Phil 2013/3/29 jannik laval <jannik.laval@gmail.com>:

Hi again,

I took the ConfigurationOfOSProcess in http://www.squeaksource.com/MetacelloRepository When I load the stable version in Pharo2.0, there is a lot of error that things are undeclared in Transcript:

For OSX, it is just a matter of calling open from the OSProcess as Cami told us in the list already. It works. Phil 2013/3/29 jannik laval <jannik.laval@gmail.com>:

Hi Phil,

Thank you for the help. But this line is only available for Windows. I don't find the same for MacOS and Linux.

Yes, that's frustrating. Example: Help Server using NBShell32 and not working on OSX... 2013/3/29 jannik.laval <jannik.laval@gmail.com>

Yes, But I am thinking that using 2 differents things to do the same work is not cool.

So, I will use that for now. Thank you
