Not!

In the dictionary you can see the supported OS for a command/handler
and "revbrowser..." is listed as Mac and Windows (only).

@shalu: The CEF browser works in 64-bit linux in LC8 - we're still having trouble getting it to work in 32-bit Linux builds, however. This means that if you are running the 64-bit Linux engine, then you can use revOpenBrowserCEF and that will work. (Indeed, the LC8 IDE makes use of revBrowser in places such as the dictionary).
