Couldn't you do something along the lines of:<div><br></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'courier new', monospace">xterm -e less $PATH_TO_SCUMMVM_LOG</font><br><br></div><div>I'm assuming both commands are available (by default) on all *NIX distros.

</div>For info xdg-open is not installed by default on my Linux distro at<br>
work (CentOS) although there is a xdg-utils package to install it. I<br>
have gnome-open and kfmclient (for gnome and kde respectively). I<br>
can't comment on wether most recent distro have it or not by default,<br>
but apparently not all of them do, so having a fallback would be good.<br>
