Hello Monks, I want to ask you advice on something

I'm making a program where I alter some images. I have made a GUI with the TK module.

After you hit the button to finish the conversion a dialog box pops up like this: 

 $converted = $mw->Dialog(-title => ' Conversion', 
   -text => 'The conversion is completed', 
   -default_button => 'open file', -buttons => [ 'open file', 'close']
+, 
   -bitmap => 'info' )->Show( );

[download]

But now I'm looking for a way to open a window of your filemanager where you can view your new image at the right folder location

I know about the  getOpenFile() commando, but that is to open a file. I just want to open a window of the filemanager at the new image location.

I am working on a unix environment so I'm not looking for solutions on win.

so summarized, when you hit the open file button on the dialog box, a window of file manager opens up at the location of the new image, which is already given elsewhere in the program.

Any ideas how to do this? can't seem to find it.

Thanks in advance
