Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: wine
If I install Photoshop in Wine, it offers to automatically associate
itself with jpeg files. This doesn't work - double clicking jpegs still
opens them with the default viewer. Right clicking them also doesn't
even list Photoshop as an option.
If I want to manually add Photoshop, either as the default application
or something to Open With, then this too is very difficult; I have to
write a script involving winepath and other complicated nonsense.
What we need is some automagical glue code that can list installed Windows
applications right alongside the others. This will require generating .desktop
files (with their own winepath entries inside) for every Windows application
that gets installed which the user might want to open with (I believe Windows
has an API for this, since there's a similar listing of applications within
Windows).
