I would guess that Sushi should use evince libraries to implement viewing for such documents. > 2. What about the file associations?

Sushi doesn't handle "double-click" associations, it would only handle the "preview" shortcut. It's not meant to replace the full applications. There's 2 problems I'd like to see listed here, one is that Sushi should use the mime-types exported by the "full" viewers (such that the video or audio parts would use the same mime-types as Totem, same for evince), the second is that the look and feel should also be shared with those applications, to avoid clashing styles. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
