This is a good idea. I tried it and it behaves exactly the same as
before. I had wondered about this, not with respect to the different
file formats, but with different desktop environments. I imagine eog
wouldn't behave properly in KDE, for example. Does xdg-open work for
KDE? Or does that little g stand for gnome still? The next thing I
want to do with the script is make it check to see whether the user is
running Linux or Mac OSX and execute the proper command. I should also
make a condition for different desktop environments I guess. Thanks,
Jon

Of course if you pick one that eog doesn't know how to display it

Perhaps replace eog with xdg-open for better portability?
