Public bug reported: In Ubuntu 12.04 some Programs are not available in the open with dialog when i klick on a file with the right mouse button. I can manage to put a program to the list with the total unbeautiful method here:
new empty file with: [Desktop Entry] Type=Application Version=1.0 Name=Name der Anwendung Comment=Tooltip der Anwendung (optional) Icon=/Pfad/zum/Symbol/symbol.png Exec=/Pfad/zum/Programm/Dateiname %F renaming in programmname.destkop storing in ~./local/share/applications/ also with Windows programs there is a even more unbeautiful method to get this done: emty file with: #!/bin/bash DATEI=Z:$1 DATEI=$(echo "$DATEI" |sed -e 's/\//\\/g' ) logger "$DATEI" wine /home/NAME/Programme/PDFXV/PDFXCview.exe "$DATEI" and then bind this script as a open with program as the method above. i would be very pleased if there will be some graphical interface to do this stuff. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1028997 Title: Ubuntu 12.04 open with, right mouse, program not available To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1028997/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
