It's been too long since I used Python on MacOSX, but IIRC you can't just run a Python GUI program from the shell. Or something like that...you should ask this one on the python-mac SIG mailing list:

You have to launch your script with pythonw, not with python.
I'm unclear on why a command like webbrowser.open() will comfortably launch your default web browser (in my case Safari), but something as ubiquitous to an OS as a file browser has special needs to launch. Perhaps each application has custom written their file browser, and I'm assuming they are each essentially doing system calls to the same thing...?
