#52548: gimp2 now drags in an entire web browser (epiphany) -----------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: macports@… | Owner: devans@… Type: enhancement | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: gimp2 epiphany | -----------------------------+---------------------- Comment (by macports@…): Thanks for the prompt reply and detailed explanation. I'm pleased to hear that you're already planning/working on something along the lines I had in mind -- ie, running the macOS `open` on the text. Based on some quick testing here the "macOS style open" could just be a trivial shell command that runs `open /path/to/file.html`, and the default browser should open (without requiring dependencies). The `.html` extension appears sufficient to trigger that. And if you're concerned the type might not be auto-detected I think it'd be okay to force Safari to be the default help browser, eg: {{{ open -a Safari /path/to/help/file }}} which would ensure that anything that worked in Safari would open in Safari. (I don't see a particular need to reimplement the `open` command when it already exists for this use case -- there's no particular performance issue for instance.) Thanks for the work keeping `gimp` installable in MacPorts.
