I think this is something that could be implemented in the frontend code. Request to open or save, on open NetSurf would save to a temporary location/filename (!Scrap) and then try and run the file (using an equivalent of - IIRC - *Filer_Run) It should say on your closure notice why it has been closed, otherwise you'll need to ask Steve F nicely to put it on his todo list. AFAIK none of the frontends have this feature yet. Chris
