How does one add mime types to appear in Helper Applications?
How does one add specific applications to those newly added mime types?
Basically, you don't, at least manually.
Someday, SeaMonkey will encounter a type it's never seen before and
prompt you for guidance. At that time, if you tell it to handle the type
the same way from here on out, it'll create an entry in the Helper
Applications. If you don't tell it this is a new policy, it won't
remember it, and it'll ask you again the next time it comes across the
unknown type.
Also, when you install a new plugin such as Shockwave Flash, those types
will appear (or change) in the Helper Applications panel.
To finish the answer (to address your second question):
Go to Edit | Preferences | Browser | Helper Applications and click the
type you're interested in. The right-hand column, "Action" will list the
current policy, e.g., "Always ask." Click that and you'll get a
pull-down list to choose from.
OK, I understand about the first question, but, I don't see any specific
mime types listed. I have two entries for pdf: "Foxit Reader PDF
Document" and "Foxit PDF Document".
For the "Foxit Reader PDF Document", the pull down gives me "Use Foxit
Reader Plugin for Mozilla (in SeaMonkey)" and "Use Foxit Reader 6.2,
Best Reader for Everyday Use! (default)" with the non-default one selected.
For the "Foxit PDF Document", the pull down gives me "Use Foxit Reader
6.2, Best Reader for Everyday Use!". It also has "Application Details"
that, when clicked shows to use "Foxit Reader.exe"
In both cases, the pull down shows other choices: "Always Ask", Save
File", and "Use Other".
