1) is "open" part of the shell or an executable itself?
Don't know if this helps, but in bash (default shell on Mac OS X) I can
write, e.g.,
open /Applications/iPhoto.app
and iPhoto will open normally.
Here is a quote from its man page:
OPEN(1) BSD General Commands Manual OPEN(1)
NAME
open -- open files and directories
SYNOPSIS
open [-a application] file ...
open [-b bundle_identifier] file ...
open [-e] file ...
open [-t] file ...
open [-f]
DESCRIPTION
The open command opens a file (or a directory or URL), just as if you
had double-clicked the file's icon. If no application name is specified,
the default application as determined via LaunchServices is used to open
the specified files.
Good luck.
