Hi
I've hacked together a little program (attached) that creates freedesktop file type associations (eg. open .dev files with Dev-C++ when you double-click them in a file manager) from what Windows programs do in the registry (#13597).
Currently it works well, but has to be run explicitly to refresh the associations. Ideally we'd have something in Wine that automatically refreshes the associations when they change, but since they are done in the registry, what's the way to go here? Do it on every wineboot, or in some permanently running process (explorer?) that monitors the registry for changes?
Also what is a good way to invent a MIME type for an extension? Currently for a .ext extension I'm just using application/x-wine-ext.
Comments much appreciated. Damjan
