No, the browser command doesn't work either.
Meanwhile I found rebols bug database and therein two open tickets about
this issue
(Jan and Dec 2004). Maybe I'm wrong, but I think this is easy to fix by
implementing
functions to set the browser and mail client paths in user.r. Or is
linux compatibility
not a main focus of rebol development?
