+ <p>The <file>/usr/share/applications/defaults.list</file> file specifies

+ MIME types for which you want to override the default registered

+
+ <steps>
+ <title>Override the default registered application for individual users</title>
+ <item>
+ <p>Consult the <file>/usr/share/applications/defaults.list</file> file to

+ application for the <code>text/html</code> and
+ <code>application/xhtml+xml</code> MIME types:</p>
+ <code>[Default Applications]
+text/html=epiphany.desktop
+application/xhtml+xml=epiphany.desktop</code>
+ <p>The default application (<app>Epiphany</app>) is defined by specifying
+ its corresponding <file>.desktop</file> file
+ (<file>epiphany.desktop</file>). The system default location for other
+ applications' <file>.desktop</file> files is
+ <file>/usr/share/applications/</file>. Individual users'
+ <file>.desktop</file> files can be stored in

+
+[Added Associations]
