Re: runtime.exec



The eclipse plugin uses a config file so I can specify a command specific to each browser. OpenURL works with Firefox and Mozilla but I need to be sure of the syntax for safari and camino. Wher can I find some documentation on command line options for safari/camino. The opernurl sysntax works but returns a error.

You could use the osascript command to run a little AppleScript:

osascript -e 'tell application "Safari" to set the URL of (make new document
at the beginning of documents) to "http://www.apple.com";'


Can I do that with a runtime.exec call?


I haven't tried it, but osascript is just a command line tool like any
other, so it should work with runtime.exec.


And will it work with any browser on the mac?


Unfortunately it didn't work when I just tried it with I.E.  This works with
IE:

tell application "Internet Explorer" to OpenURL "http://www.apple.com";

But that didn't work with Safari.  There ought to be an AppleScript command
that works for both, but I don't see it.
