All files are always indexed (things like filename). These external filters allow the content of files that are otherwise unknown to Beagle to be indexed as well. > How it is possible then to associate an "action" to execute on a > particular file reported by beagle-search?

Right now file associations are done through the GNOME APIs. The only way I know of to set up or change file associations in GNOME is through Nautilus. >From Nautilus, right-click on the type of file you want to change, and click Properties. Go to the "Open With" tab and (assuming the app you want isn't listed there), click "Add". It'd be great if someone whipped up a standalone tool for this; you're not the first person to ask this. (I'd refer to the archive but it appears to be broken right now.)
