Re: giving a URL to safari

Nope.  It's a shell issue.  Use single quotes instead, like so:

	open 'http://localhost/3.6man/xephem.html#SkyView'
	open 'file:///Library/Documents/3.6man/xephem.html#SkyView'


You haven't really tried this, have you?

I think it's the LaunchServices framework that throws away the #SkyView.

Here is a method that works: I don't know how to do this with Safari, but with Mozilla you can use AppleScript. From the command line, the following will work (one line)

osascript -e 'tell application "Mozilla" to OpenURL "file:///Library/Documents/3.6man/xephem.html#SkyView"'

Maybe something similar will work with Safari, but I don't know the syntax.
