Hi Faouzi,

the TSystemFile class is internally used by the TBrowser to represent
files. Don't use this class by hand. To access the file system via the TBrowser
just create a browser (new TBrowser) and click on the entry /home/xxxx. There
you
will see the TSystemFile objects. Double clicking on an icon executes the action
specified in the mime types file.

Cheers, Fons.
