Hi!

I tried to understand how to add a command to the list of «external
editors» by myself. Unfortunately I could not accomplish it yet :-(

I am running Ubuntu 11.04 (Gnome 2, 2D) with Geeqie v1.0.

In the context menu of a JPEG file I see seven editors. I'd like to
add a self-written Python tool to that context menu at least for
JPEG files.

For that purpose I wrote a desktop file:

,----[ ~/.config/geeqie/applications/m2a.desktop ]
| [Desktop Entry]
| Name=m2a
| GenericName=m2a
| Comment=
| Exec=m2a %F
| Icon=
| Terminal=true
| Type=Application
| Categories=Application;
| hidden=false
| MimeType=image/bmp;image/gif;image/jpeg;image/jpg;[...]
`----

m2a is in my ${PATH} and can be invoked in command line without
problems.

Unfortunately I was not able to see this file in the context menu of
Geeqie, in the «Edit/External Editors» menu or in the list of
«Edit/Preferences.../Configure Editors...».

How can I add my own tool?

Thank you very much!
