It looks as if you're trying to make a *MULTI-LEVEL* menu,
callable from <F2>; which is interesting, and I'd like to know if
that's possible.
But, via guidance on a recent thread here [is there an archive?]
I successfully updated my ??mc/mc.ext to show graphics via
<F3> and <enter> using 2 diferent 'viewers'.
Here's an extract, with some of my modifications:--------
### Images ###
type/^GIF
# Include=image-options CRG edit try:
# Open=if [ "$DISPLAY" = "" ]; then zgv %f; else (
Open=%view{ascii} identify %f
View=/usr/bin/display %f
type/^JPEG
#crg Include=image-options
# Open=if [ "$DISPLAY" = "" ]; then zgv %f; else (/usr/bin/display %f &);
# View=if [ "$DISPLAY" = "" ]; then zgv %f; else (/usr/bin/display %f &);
Open=display %f
View=display %f
type/^PNG
# crg try to edit ?
# Include=image-options
Open=%view{ascii} identify %f
View=/usr/bin/display %f
--------------
BTW I saw the various sound ..etc. formats which you listed.
Of course you realise that you should use the 'hello world principle',
and first just add/edit one new type and test it.
I think that you can see from the code that the file.extention is tested
to decide which app. to apply to the data.file ?
I know that eg. for pdf's entry I which edited to get:-
# PDF
type/^PDF
Open=xpdf %f&
#Open=acroread %f&
#Open=ghostview %f&
View=%view{ascii} pdftotext %f -
----- And now <enter> calls my xpdf
& <F3> calls my pdftotex, both on %f:the selected file.
