Weird. Kernel#system returns true if the command succeeded and false
otherwise, so it should work as is.
You could try:
system "open '#{filename}'"
$?.success?
But there's no reason that should work and the original shouldn't. You
don't have a debugging print statement or anything like that as the
final line of the hook, do you?

Good point. Backslashes optional though. :)
