Hello, > What is the recommended way to get the application (and more > specificallycommand) incharge of handling a particular mimetype?
To have something that should not only run with Gnome but also with other environment such as XFCE, there is a tool provided by the Portland initiative, xdg-open: http://portland.freedesktop.org/wiki/ You won't get the command line, but you will be able to directly execute the application with a file, if that fits your needs. I don't know if there is a Perl module doing the same thing. But if your final goal is the execution, it does a nice job. I hope this helps, Tian. _______________________________________________ gtk-perl-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
