If you want to run files with certain extensions with a special
program, you can use:
In the command box of the button
.mydrop(_file_)
In a file mydrop.txt in your script folder
////start of script
args dropped
if (index(".pdf.jpg..."),"."++file.type(dropped)>= 0) do
do (dropped)
else
do("path to your viewer", dropped)
endif
////end of script
Not tested!
You may be able to squeeze this onto a button command and not need
the script file, but above allows for easier changes.
Note that ".pdf..." has to be changed to include all the extensions
that you do _not_ want to use your viewer program for.
