Thanks!

Doesn't it mean that something resets it between the options parsing and
the GUI help stuff processing? I'd rather see a patch that finds

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?

With this change, FlightGear on Mac OS X launches the mac os x Safari
