Subject: How do I configure file types and programs in Gnome 2.8?
Message-ID: <20041008125611.GA9455@bongo>

I can't find the application to configure file types and programs,
described in /usr/share/gnome/help/user-guide/C/goscustlookandfeel.xml
starting from line 148:

  10.5 Configuring File Types and Programs
  Use the File Types and Programs preference tool to configure the following:
  [ blah, blah, blah ]

According to section 9.2 of the documentation, it should be in
Applications -> Desktop Preferences -> Advanced -> File types and
programs; however, it's missing on my system.  Where do I find this
tool?

  $ rpm -qa|grep ^gnome|sort

I think, that this documentation is a little bit outdated. Now, in GNOME
2.8 there is different MIME subsystem. See
http://www.gnome.org/~jrb/files/mime/ for more details.

Thanks, I couldn't find it.  For the record: ~/.mailcap worked just fine
for my needs.
