Package: ion2
Version: 20040729-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

I have improved the ion-edit script by making it call file to
determine the file's MIME type (run-mailcap only looks at the file
extension). In particular, this makes it work much better for text
files.

I sent this improvement to the upstream author, but he's stopped using
the ion-* scripts. Nonetheless, until ion3 is in a stable form, I
thought this improvement might be a useful addition to the Debian
package in particular.
