New submission from pacien <vpmfty.pythonb...@pacien.net>:
given ~/.mailcap containing: */*; xdg-open "%s" >>> mailcap.findmatch(mailcap.getcaps(), 'application/pdf', >>> filename='thing.pdf') returns: (None, None) instead of: ('xdg-open "thing.pdf"', {'view': 'xdg-open "%s"', 'lineno': 0}) --- While top-level wildcards aren't defined in RFC1524, most other tools and programs (including mutt for example) handle them properly. Entries of the form of "*; someprogram" or "*/*; someprogram" are useful for fallbacks when no other more precise type can be found. ---------- components: email messages: 352038 nosy: barry, pacien, r.david.murray priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: mailcap top level wildcard support type: behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38126> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
