The page on emacswiki that lists all this is

  http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/Anything

You can poste additions on that wiki page. If you want to modify
existing code, please clone the git repository and send me a patch or
the url of your repository, so that I can pull your changes.

Hm, I don't know. Maybe comp.emacs would be more appropriate, or
gnu.emacs.help? (Does anything work on XEmacs?)

As open is not the default tool on all platforms, I thinkt the current
behavior of `anything-actions-file' is better. But you can

  (setq anything-external-commands-list '("open"))

so that you save some processing time and only get "open" as completion
possibility when you choose

  "Open File with external Tool".

Yes, why not? Of course fou could choose "Describe Function" and then
hit RET on the link...

But I'll add it.
