I was reading a review of the new Google Desktop  search tool from  
linux.com

It says that you can open a file or folder in Konq or Nautilus from  
within Firefox.
I'd love to know how they do that - can anybody tell me what the heck  
style url they use to do it?
Or is it a javascript?  or?

Comments from someone who's installed it appreciated,

Brian
