What would be the kde equivalent to this command?

I think it's

kfmclient exec file

Not really sure though.

EDIT: Made a typo there...

What does the command do? gnome is a desktop environment, not an application, so it must call up some other application to open a file?

Well, I just tried out my suggestion and it works. Have you tried it yet?

kfmclient exec filename

For most filetypes that KDE recognizes, it will launch the appropriate app.
