The specification for the default application for any (mime)type is currently being worked on by the freedesktop people. (There is a link somewhere, I couldn't look it up quickly). Before it is standardized and implemented, there is little hope of finding out, in a cross DE way, the default application for any type. Adding preferences to beagle would require another mimetype-application association to be maintained by beagle (the first being with the DE). Thats a scary thought. - dBera -- -------------------------------------------------------- Debajyoti Bera @ http://dbera.blogspot.com beagle / KDE fan Mandriva / Inspiron-1100 user _______________________________________________ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
