So apparently the code just checks for the exit status of the process
and then raises the window if the exit status is anything apart from
0. Code is here [1]

Apparently the exit code for me was 256 ....

Any ideas if setting destroyonexit could be causing this? Because I
think the code to open the url is fine ...
