        import gnome
        gnome.url_show("file:" + NETCONFDIR + \
                       "/help/index.html")    

hmm... maybe you have not installed mozilla... nevertheless, htmlview should be
used. Lets hear, what our gnome team has to say about that?

Comment 3 Havoc Pennington 2003-05-31 03:35:28 UTC
I thought I made it use htmlview, but maybe I'm thinking of gnome-libs 1.x instead 
of libgnome.

Works now... closing
