Create a .desktop file following http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/, register the MIME type for .plt files in it (you probably first need to create an entry in the shared-mime-info database for .plt files and run the update-mime-database command) and add the necessary command. Then run update-desktop-database. With the next start of nautilus, mark a .plt file and get the Properties windows via right-click menu. There choose "Open with" and choose the action you recently added. Then always a simple click on this file will run gnuplot. > > How to resolve this? > > You are probably looking for nautilus-actions > http://www.grumz.net/?q=taxonomy/term/2/9 Is there no implementation of the desktop-actions part of the freedesktop.org desktop entry specification in nautilus? Is it planned to support this? Regards, Daniel -- nautilus-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/nautilus-list
