Hi list, To solve the issue that every desktop environment has its own way to specify default web browser and terminal emulator, I wrote a new spec to create a cross-desktop mechanism for this. This spec works by extending existing XDG specs and only requires minimal changes to existing systems without breaking backward compatibility. Besides, it can work in an desktop independent way, and can work with existing xdg tools like desktop-utils.
Here is the full specification. http://wiki.lxde.org/en/Desktop_Preferred_Applications_Specification This spec is going to be implemented by LXDE later. Please give some comments. Thank you all. _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
