Default shell and email

Email addresses found e.g. in this forum often contain hidden a command e.g. "mailto:someone@hotmail.com". Clicking on the link starts the default mail program, with a new mail, and puts the email address in the right place in the new mail.

Is there some way of doing something similar in Basic4ppc? (without knowing what the default program is) perhaps with the shell command?

all the best / Björn


Edit:
of course I could have tried the command as shell("mailto:someone@hotmail.com","") and I would have found that that works ok... Oh well, I hope someone else also benefits from this
