[REBOL] Re: changing the browser used by rebol...

good one  :-)

it just needs a little bit of extension for browsing files:

browser-app: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
if exists? to-rebol-file browser-app [
    browse: func [url [file! url!]] [
        if file? url [
            url: replace/all rejoin [file:// to-local-file url] "\" "/"
        ]
        call rejoin [browser-app { "} to-string url {"}]
    ]
]

Note the use of quotes around the url, in case the string has spaces, which
will be handled by the dos shell and should generate just one argument to
the application.

this worked for me, for firefox anyways.

thanks for your suggestion it prompted me into action, hehe... this was
where I was headed.

for my own needs, this is sufficient, but I was just wondering if there was
an official way to do so, cause this might be part of a commercial
application, eventually.
