Using openwith (or alternative) on Mac

Question

My openwith-associations includes:

("\\.xlsx\\'" "Microsoft Excel"
  (file)))

But this doesn't work. How should this association be written? Is there a better way to open the file link at point than using openwith?

what is the command name to open excel from the terminal on macs? I suspect it's not two words? On linux I use "localc", not "LibreOffice Calc" — Tyler, Jul 23 '20 at 11:25

The shell command is just open, which makes openwith very handy indeed.

("\\.xlsx\\'" "open"
  (file)))
