Conveniently open files such as PDFs in their default applications straigt from OCaml.
The library requires dune
(formerly known as jbuilder) to build, but has no other dependencies.
Run make
to build and make test
to see the library in action. This should open several files from the examples/basic
folder.
There is also a more sophisticated example in examples/graphviz
that requires graphivz and Jane Street's core
(version v0.9.0 or higher). You can build & run it as follows:
jbuilder build @graphviz
The library has been tested under Linux and MacOS and will likely not run under Windows/Cygwin. It uses xdg-open
on Linux and open
on MacOS.
Suggestions and contributions are always welcome. Feel free to submit pull requests.
