The line produced by launch is something like

wd 'winexec ',DEL,'"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -new-tab
"http://www.google.com";' , DEL , 'sw_show' 

The space after winexec is required.

Firefox supports -new-tab and -new-window switches.

If you want to have the new URL write over the current tab,
you have to go to About:config in Firefox and set the parameter

browser.link.open_external

to 1.
