Hi,

I'm using PC-Pine 4.04 and Netscape 4.05. When I open an URL from within
Pine this works fine (no problems liked discussed before), but Pine always
opens it in the first Netscape Windows. This is quite annoying since it
changes whatever is shown there. It would be better if Pine opens a NEW
browser window for the given URL.

       -Michael

Try adding the new-window option to the openurl "command", as in:
  openURL(_URL_, new-window)
