### What is the process flow when opening a link/file in another VM ?
1. in an AppVM ('srcVM') a link - or file - is set to be opened in a destination VM ('dstVM') with the graphical "open in VM" or "open in dispVM" extensions (or respectively the `/usr/bin/qvm-open-in-vm` or `/usr/bin/qvm-open-in-dvm` tools)
2. in src VM, the destination VM is hardcoded to '$dispvm' when dispVMs are used (`/usr/bin/qvm-open-in-dvm` is a simple wrapper to `/usr/bin/qvm-open-in-vm`)
3. in srcVM, `/usr/lib/qubes/qrexec-client-vm` is called, which in turn calls the `qubes.OpenURL` [RPC service](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/qrexec3/#qubes-rpc-services) to send the url to dstVM
4. in dstVM, `/etc/qubes-rpc/qubes.OpenURL` is called upon reception of the `qubes.OpenURL` RPC event above, which in turn executes `/usr/bin/qubes-open`

5. in dstVM, `/usr/bin/qubes-open` executes `xdg-open`, which then opens the url/file with the program registered to handle the associated mime type (for additional info see the [freedesktop specifications](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/)).
