Proposal for "System_Launcher"

» Metadata » Status
» Description

System_Launcher is a simple opener of filenames and URLs.

By using the operating system's features for opening a file or URL, this package simplifies writing command-line tools that open HTML documentation et cetera. For instance, upon successful install, the "next steps" URL could be loaded in the browser.

A use-case is the yet-to-be pear report-bug command. The user enters a package name, and is sent to a web page where to report her bug, with some form values pre-filled. Say, her PHP version, at least.

Currently supports: Windows, Mac OS X, Linux (KDE, GNOME, anyone having Portland). To support more desktop/OS variations, it's simple to create new driver classes for the package.

Based on original code by cweiske, and feedback given by the PEAR community.

If you'd like to install it, criticize it, rely on it, experiment with it: here is a package page on pearhub.
