Hmm. Your idea calls for generalization. We have a MIME-type definition in each desktop filem, but it definition knows nothing about the fact, what can application do with listed MIME-type. Extended description could look: Have a (possibly unlimited) set of actions defined somewhere: Read (default), Edit, Send_via_Bluetooth... MimeType=class/type;class/anothertype; MimeType/Edit=class/type MimeTypeConvert(class/anothertype)=class/type MimeTypeConvertCommand(*/*,class/anothertype)=myconvert %s -t %M %S MimeTypeConvertCommand=myconvert -f %m %s -t %M %S Nautilus could take an advance of such database while renaming files or with menu item "Convert to" without much effort from application author. -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SuSE CR, s. r. o. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Drahobejlova 27 tel: +420 296 542 382 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 296 542 374 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
