Hello. Using mc 4.8.3 on Ubuntu 12.10. mc never customized, all using default settings.
If I press Enter on a gif/jpeg file, mc calls 'feh' to display it. If I press Enter on a mp3/wav file, mc flashes and does nothing more. No more software are launched. see(1) uses /etc/mailcap like mc*, and see(1) can open both files. That is, see(1) opens .gif with feh(1) and .mp3 with mplayer(1), as specified in /etc/mailcap. Why this happens? I suppose it is a bug, because it looks like mc was supposed to work out of the box, that is, it opens mp3 with some software, and users only need to customize it if he/she prefers a different software. Best regards * I have verified that mc(1) do use /etc/mailcap. This is how I did it: I replaced feh in /etc/mailcap with xli, and both see(1) and mc(1) changed behaviour, opening gif image using xli instead of feh. _______________________________________________ mc mailing list https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
