The first time you click on an *.pls link, you should get an open-with-program or save dialog. Browse to /usr/bin/xmms (or wherever your xmms is). The browser then remembers to use xmms next time. This behavior can be edited later in the Navigator/Application Helper prefs. Konquerer has a very similar feature, except it doesn't seem to _remember_ your preference. I just tried to add *.pls to the File Association prefs in that browser but it didn't stick. Maybe somebody who uses Konquerer more can offer a better answer there. dave > > _______________________________________________ > vox-tech mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech > _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
