A remark by a collegue of mine in French:

---
Dans la plupart des distributions Linux et autres Unix-like modernes, il y a 
une commande xdg-open (open tout court étant déjà pris) qui fait à peu près  
la même chose. Voir 
  
http://portland.freedesktop.org/xdg-utils-1.0/xdg-open.html
  
pour les détails.
