>>If you really mean to execute an arbitrary file (Process.Start("foo.xlsx") will open foo.xlsx in Excel, on Windows, for example) then call "/usr/bin/xdg-open thing" - this is probably the most useful use-case, and is also valid when thing is a URL, opening in the default browser. AFAIK, xdg-open is used by Mono implementation of Process.Start if UseShellExecute=true (which is default). It's same on Windows - CreateProcess doesn't start Excel, it returns you an error, while ShellExecute does.
