Patch to try using xdg-open as a launcher patch 2009-10-21 10:47 816 bytes

While running Processing on KDE I've got an error about not finding
"gnome-open". When I went to look in the code I saw that I was using
Processing 1.0.3 and that it seemed to have been fixed. However I think a
better fix is to first use xdg-open which should be crossdesktop (all
desktops that follow the freedesktop specification).

sure, i'll have to leave the other options as possibilities for older
systems, but i'll put this one at the top of the list. (fixed for whatever
comes after 1.0.9)
