I know that the file associations in the Rox-Filer file manager are in the
~/.config/rox.sourceforge.net/MIME-types directory. These scripts control what
application opens up when I click on a file in the Rox-Filer file manager.
Where are the file associations in the Thunar file manager, and how do I change
them? When I click on a file in the Thunar window manager, I still get AbiWord
for *.doc and *.odt files and Gnumeric for *.xls files.
Please note that I'm aware of right-click -> Open with Another Application.
I'm looking for the solution that involves command line or directly editing files,
as I need to automate the procedure on behalf of Swift Linux users.

While I can't help with the command line solution you are seeking, I
have found that by right clicking on the file you wish to open (e.g. a
*.doc) and selecting "properties" from the context menu, you can then
change the association in a way that is far more permanent than trying
to fix it via the "open with" option.
But, as I admitted, this will not help you with the command line solution.
