And that's the secret word: no documented way :-)

Here is my variation of a handler that Ken Ray (i think) once posted,
or how i fondly call him "The Man Ray of X-talk" :-)


on revealinexplorer tFile
   ## tFile is a valid and full path to the file you want
   ## to show in its parent window...
   ## Does also work with a FOLDER!

   set the hideconsolewindows to true
   ## Hide ugly DOS box...

   replace "/" with "\" in tFile
   ## shell command needs a Win path!

   get shell("explore.exe /select," && tFile)
end revealinexplorer


Hope that helps...
