or update efreet. this is a problem with most .desktop files and the
freedesktop standards. the .desktop files actually don't comply. they do not
specify how to run the app WITH a file as input. efreet was being very strict
and following the standard. as the .desktop provided no indication of how to
launch the app WITH a file passed in - only the app was launched. the .desktops
don't follow the standard very well. i added code to "guess" if no %U/u/F/f
etc. is provided in the cmd-line then guessing that just adding the full file
path after the command will work. it's sloppy but it solves the problem.
