On things like Debian, this is also wrong because sensible-browser
should be used instead. Is there some autoconf library function to
discover the most likely browser on a system?
Also the WIN32 section in src/GUI/gui_funcs.cxx with the 1024-long
hardcoded buffers can be a crash trigger when the
In the macflightgear binary I've been passing --browser-app=open to fgfs. This opens the url in the default browser. For me that's Firefox.Your patch could be changed to something like this:Index: FlightGear/src/Main/options
Arthur and Vassilii,
Even though I couldn't fix it, I'm glad I got smarter minds to think about it! 8-)
OK, is there a way to get sensible-browser at compile time? Is this a link know to the OS or something? is it callable or does it need to be read on Debian somewhere?

It's a callable standard script on debian.
It tries various intelligent decisions to guess what browser to run.

Arthur and James,
Yes, I agree it's silly, but currently help was broken on my two mac
systems (giving a log message that netscape couldn't be found),
followed by a dialog that my browser was started. It's really
