Flammie's settings and etc data
mimeapps
is a dotfile read by some random applications to figure out which
software opens which filetype in a desktop environment without a desktop
environment, perhaps something to do with X desktop standard xdg or not. You
need to have it in two places: ~/.config/mimeapps.list
and
~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list
. It surely overrides some global
stuff as well. In normal desktops you can use settings to control these but with
i3 you don’t have sustainable solution for this. mimeopen -D
helps usually,
these are the files it controls. The format is same as .desktop
files a bit,
so a bit like .ini
files or .toml
files or such. It’s
mimetype=.desktop-file
. how you are gonna figure out the name of the desktop
file is a mystery, I just find
them somewhere so far…
