I proposed this as a RFE for java 7 claiming that "all modern file managers should have this capability and the code does the same thing anyway just look at what happens when Desktop.browse(directory) is given a directly" (open the directory, not selected admittedly)
Then i look at the jdk native code and see it is using the same native function for all functions "gnome_url_show" and delegating the work of choosing the application to gnome.

Come on don't let me down here :( :(
Is there such a function. Something like explore(byte[] ... files) where the files have to be in the same directory, i don't care as i can sort that java side, just has to select atomically.
Even if only a file can be selected that is better than nothing.
Also strange that from the command line you choose to open a dialog saying "The location is not a folder".

Sarcasm aside, a useful feature no? I believe Explorer has this, at least i found a documentation in msn describing the cmd line option with a google search.
