The command 'rox' is the ROX equivalent to Filer_Run.  Unfortunately it
vanished from recent versions of ROX-Filer, but it is very simple.  If you
installed ROX-Filer in ~/Apps then rox is:

#!/bin/sh
exec /home/stephen/Apps/ROX-Filer/AppRun "$@"

(or wherever your home directory is).

As you can see it simply runs ROX-Filer with the file as the argument.  The
filer then passes that to an already running instance of the filer (or
becomes the instance if it can't find one) which then runs it according to
the defined run actions.
