Edit Question
Title
Body
I want to open a folder window, in the appropriate file manager, from within a cross-platform (windows/mac/linux) Python application. On OSX, I can open a window in the finder with os.system('open "%s"' % foldername) and on Windows with os.startfile(foldername) What about unix/linux? Is there a standard way to do this or do I have to special case gnome/kde/etc and manually run the appropriate application (nautilus/konqueror/etc)? This looks like something that could be specified by the freedesktop.org folks (a python module, similar to webbrowser , would also be nice!).
