We need a way to map some default mime types to extensions in OS/2, similar to a mime.types file on Linux or the registry on Windows.
We have a couple ways to do this, and I need some opinions. 1. Actually use a mime.types files. This would be a text based file that stored the extensions. The location of the file would be specified as a preference. 2. Create an INI file in OS/2 (like MIMETYPE.INI or something silly) that stored extension to mime type mappings. 3. Create a Mime Types entry in OS/2 ini that had all the extensions and a corresponding mime type. Note that options 1 and 3 only store extension to mime type mapping whereas number 2 could actually store additional info like a default application to start the mime type with. What do people think is best? Thanks Mike Kaply IBM
