I think this came from someone on this list, in almost this same form:

#!/bin/bash
URL="$@"
PHOENIX=/usr/local/phoenix/phoenix
$PHOENIX -remote "ping()"
# $? = false if running, true if not
if [ $? = 0 ] ; then
    $PHOENIX -remote openURL"($URL,new-tab)"
else
    $PHOENIX $URL
fi
exit


Set the absolute address of your phoenix in the third line, and place
it somewhere in your path.  Mine is in  /usr/local/bin  and is named
phoenix

It works here.
