Thanks for the suggestion. However, what I really want is to type "?
plot" in IDL, and have the help page appear in a browser that is not
my system browser. The spawn idea was interesting, but apart from not
achieving what I wanted, the NOWAIT keyword is a Windows only keyword,
and I'm running Linux.
