<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
This module allows you to launch a URL or a file on the Mac using the
system's default application for that URL or file type. It provides
similar functionality to the "/usr/bin/open" command-line tool, but
works without shelling out to an external program. The package also
allows you to query the system for a default app for a particular URL
type, i.e. http://, and also to set the default app for a particular
URL. Finally, the module provides a convenience function to get the
current app path.
