Hi folks,
On my machine (at least), FC3 is missing file associations for the native OpenOffice.org file formats. Gadzooks!
1. For example, when I list a directory that contains OOo Writer documents (sxw extensions) in Konqueror, I see "Unknown" in the "File Type" column.
2. When I right-click on one of those SXW files, the context menu has an option for Open with..." However when I right-click on a DOC file, the context menu has an option that says "Open with" which then offers choices for OO Writer and KWord. I was expecting the same thing for SXW (and SXC...) files.
3. I'm guessing that there just isn't a file association set up for SXW files in FC3. The Open With dialog doesn't have a "Use this program to open this file type from now on" option when I right-click on SXW files. I looked high and low and couldn't find the widget that allows me to create one. And I couldn't find one.
I've done a search on the fedora list on "file association" for the last six months or so and didn't find any messages on this topic. So....
How do I create a file association for SXWs (or any other type of file, for that matter) in FC3?
Thanks!
