dist#vim9#Open(file: string) ~
Opens `path` with the system default handler (macOS `open`, Windows
`explorer.exe`, Linux `xdg-open`, …). If the variable |g:Openprg| exists the
string specified in the variable is used instead.
+This function is by default called using the gx mapping. In visual mode
+tries to open the visually selected text.
+
+Associated setting variables:
+`g:gx_word`: control how gx picks up the text under the cursor. Uses
+ `g:netrw_gx` as a fallback for backward compatibility.
+ (default: `<cfile>`)
+
+`g:nogx`: disables the gx mapping. Uses `g:netrw_nogx` as a fallback for
+ backward compatibility. (default: `unset`)
+
+
NOTE: Escaping of the path is automatically applied.
