Hi John,
It sounds at least as if your application associations got messed up
bigtime.
Perhaps creating a new temporary user would help. Log in as that user, run
X-windows and check the mimetypes and set-up applications. After that you
should be able to get going in copying the .kde/share/applnk and
.kde/share/mimelnk folders from the temp-user to your own ~/.kde/share
directory. chown them, and things should be pretty much back to normal
again.
If someone else has a better idea, then just forget what I said.
Good luck,
Paul
