Re: What happened to all of the program associations?

["Adam Sleight" <adams linearcorp com>]

File Manager (gmc) / Commands / Edit Mime Types
find application/pdf  pdf
if it exists you can edit it to say
OPEN acroread %f  OR xpdf %f

btw anyone know with Gnome 1.2 how to quickly solve 
application/txt txt
application/css css   
they both open with gnome-edit and you have to change it to gedit or whatever.
What's a quick fix rather than change all of the associations?
