How can I associate a file type (such as an OO text document) to a program? For instance, if I create an OO text document then when I later click on the document I would like it to just open within OO. I've tried right-mouse-clicking on the file, doing "set run action", and then dragging the /user/OpenOffice.org1.1.4/program/swriter icon into the dialog, but that does nothing.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Andrew
PS. I'm running Chubby Puppy 1.0.4 from a multi-session CD.
How do I set File-Program Associations?
Yes it is a limitation at the moment, the current way of doing those file associations is a bit geeky and hard to understand, especially for most people.
I'm having a go at adding a menu option to provide the facility that you are after. But strangely enough its taking a while to make it happen... as I'm trying to make it maybe too easy to use... hmm, maybe I'll put up a quick hack version soon
I'll probably make a post to this thread in next few days:

For your sxw file to left click open in OO, you need to make a script file to launch it called /root/Choices/MIME-types/application_x-zip
so yeah a bit geeky... maybe wait for my next post
