We need to get list of default programs associated to selected file. Mayebe we need ability to change default program for mime type.

jleclanche commented 12 years ago

I think the program to change default mime type should be third party.

ABBAPOH commented 12 years ago

I disagree - on windows and mac this is a file manager's use case. Also Dolphin allows to change mime type too, as far as i remember.

jleclanche commented 12 years ago

What I meant was that the functionality should be built into a third party app, and andromeda should launch that app.

What make you think so? I don't know any example of such behavior

jleclanche commented 12 years ago

Well, for one thing, other file managers would benefit from having a mime type editor installed.

Having a mime type editor would be excellent in Razor, and those who enjoy different file managers may have that and their own file manager installed.
