Re: Open with menu

[Stephane Delcroix <stephane delcroix org>]

the only thing you need in the desktop file is a line like this
(from /usr/share/applications/gimp.desktop):

Exec=gimp-remote-2.3 %U

if Bibble does not handle uris, you probably could write a wrapper
script with its own .desktop file.
