How to open a chrome app using chrome plugin? - google-chrome-extension

I am a newbie so bear with me.
I am starting to learn how to create Chrome Extensions and Chrome Apps. I found this on Github: https://github.com/GoogleChrome/chrome-app-samples/tree/master/samples/frameless-window
I can also create a simple chrome extension.
My question is how can I open/run/call a chrome app using my custom chrome extension?
Thanks and happy coding!

How to launch Chrome Advanced REST Client

There's this great REST client "extension" for Chrome, but the only way I can find to launch it is to go to the Chrome webstore!
It's listed as Enabled in my Chrome extensions. Is there any local way to launch it?
Chrome's Apps page should have the launch icon for Advanced REST client now that it's been installed.
URL: chrome://apps/
From Chrome Web Store Help:
The Chrome App Launcher is no longer available on Windows, Mac or Linux. You can still open your Chrome Apps at chrome://apps.
Visit that URL. Click the icon for the app.
Press "Details" on the Extensions page and create a shortcut

How does Google Chrome launch Internet Explorer in the IETab extension

How is IETab able to launch Internet explorer in Google ?hrome? Can I launch other browsers like FireFox or Safari like Internet explorer inside Google Chrome?
My intention behind this is to know what language they are using to enable this functionality.
They are rehosting the WebBrowser control.
