Hello: All this is true but my question was how konqueror/krusader finds out that what is the file's type. An example: How konqueror knows that .jpg should be opened by an image viewer and not by a text editor? When I set the associations I set the application depending on the extension. Or do I misunderstand something? Thanks, IG Kisorsolunk 10 LAPTOP-ot!
