Hi all,
I pushed a rewrite of the mime-type-external-handlers API, so if you
have configured viewers for certain mime types in your rc, you will want
to take note. The variable mime_type_external_handlers no longer exists,
and it has been replaced by one called external_content_handlers. Here is
how to use it, in short:
external_content_handlers.set("application/pdf", "xpdf");
external_content_handlers.set("image/*", "display");
The way to "unset" a handler for a mime-type is to give null as the
value.
You can also set all handlers at once (overriding all defaults):
external_content_handlers = {
"*": "kate", //no idea why anybody would use kate, but anyway..
text: { "*": "kate" },
image: { "*": "feh" },
video: { "*": "gmplayer" },
audio: { "*": "gmplayer" },
application: {
pdf: "xpdf",
postscript: "gv",
"x-dvi": "xdvi"
}
};
The main feature of this new patch was actually something called
content_handlers. With the addition of that feature, it made good sense
to overhaul the mime-type-external-handlers stuff along with it. I would
encourage everyone to have a look at what the new feature does at:
http://conkeror.org/ContentHandlers
You just might find it convenient.
