[QUOTE="EvenStranger, post: 1237990, member: 181804"] This isn't going to be solved by a simple single line command. Open is doing exactly what it's supposed to - it's a finite command, and once the app is open, it's done and returns the user to the command prompt. The other option, calling the app directly, attempts to point the user to a local file on the computer. Odds are this is going to require some combination of shell and AppleScript to call the proper URL. Maybe that's the clue - create the AppleScript to open the URL, and then call it directly. [/QUOTE]
