Description Kevin Haaland CLA 2001-10-10 22:43:46 EDT 
When developing Plugins, a lot of time is spent going back and forth between the File explorer and Eclipse, it would be nice to
have a feature where you can click on a directory and say go to URL directory and say a Windows Explorer would pop up in 
that directory.

NOTES:

	On Windows it is as simple as executing the following on the command line:
		explorer /e,/select,c:\winnt\winhelp.exe

	On Linux, KDE execute the following:
		konqueror <URL>
		ie.
		konqueror file:/home/foo
