Hey,
when you right click a file and than press "Open With" you will get a
list of available programs for that file and the default program. but
now i`m wondering where that stuff is stored.. because i cant find it in
gconf.
so.. is it stored in a configuration file? or in a database??
Each gnome program "registers" itself in a *.desktop file in
/usr/share/applications. There is a "MimeType" line in these files
indicating what types of files it can handle. (The mimetype definitions
are in /usr/share/mime*).
You may have *.desktop files under your home directory too.
If you change these files, you need to run update-desktop-database.
