Possible for /wiki to not give up foreground?

Hmm… I suspect this might be a function of the LaunchServices method the game calls, and not something the game does explicitly.

I suspect the answer is “no” but wanted to check. My friend had an idea that it would be cool to use the /wiki command but have it load in an expandable overlay window (on OS X) instead of switching out to your browser.

I have written a special browser app that can act as an overlay for Guild Wars 2. I have it working so that when you type “/wiki <query>” it will load the web page in my app which is currently overlaying the game. All of that is working.

But Guild Wars still relinquishes its foreground status. I wonder if there is a way to have Guild Wars send the Apple Event to the browser without relinquishing its foreground status. Is there a config file somewhere with this (admittedly wishful thinking) setting? Or is it hard coded into the client?

Thanks!
