To open the containing folder from Iceweasel's Downloads window with the Rox filer is not as simple as selecting /usr/bin/rox under Edit -> Preferences -> Applications: file. This is because Rox needs the option -U to deal with the browser's request.
So create a new file /usr/local/bin/roxuri and copy the following into it:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
exec rox -U"$@"
make it executable for all by using Rox or by issuing the command:

Code: Select all

chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/roxuri
then select /usr/local/bin/roxuri under Iceweasel's Edit -> Preferences -> Applications: file.

Tip - to create the file in a graphic application use

Code: Select all

gksu geany
to open Geany editor as root.
