Opening files in external applications


  • Subject: Opening files in external applications
  • From: David Feldman <email@hidden>

I have a Cocoa app from which I want to open some Web pages in the user's
default browser, as well as a text file in the default app for that
(presumably TextEdit on most systems). So far the only way I can see to do
this is to use a system() call to the command-line open command and store
the URLs as weblocs. Is there a more elegant way?

Thanks,
--Dave
