Stephen,
I'm using Rev 2.5...
>Launch document?
This was added in Rev 2.7.1
Just tested, this works in Rev 2.7.4gm Mac (without word wrap):
launch document "/Applications Third
Party/PROGRAMMING/REVOLUTION/Revolution
Enterprise/2.7.1-gm-1/Documentation/pdf/users_guide/all.pdf"

JB,
Here are some shell scripts that were actually posted a long while
ago, so they might work under Rev 2.5. They will launch the default
browser, PDF reader or text editor (depending upon the type of file
it is you are trying to launch). I have them in an app of mine, and
they seem to work fine.

openMac launchfile -- if there is not going to be a Classic
version, there's no need to test for the systemVersion
else if the platform is "Win32" then
get the shortFilePath of launchFile
replace "/" with "\" in it
if the systemVersion contains "Windows 4" then
openWin4 it
else if the systemversion contains "NT" then
openWin5 it
