Basically what you can do is create a directory called /etc/binfmt_misc and

Packages such as Wine, Kaffe, dosemu, and perhaps Frotz would drop a file
into this directory announcing their support of a binary format. The files

2. Suggestion: Would it be possible to somehow integrate this with
/etc/mailcap, which already has good support in packages? There are
different ways you could do this, eg have in the config file lines that

Hello,
I was just poking around on my system and found a script I wrote back when

Oops.
