The New Sylpheed in 1.0.5 is a "generic" easy to understand, fast - woosh - type program - great . . .My master plan for mime-type handling enters the next phase. Puppy 1.0.5 has default handlers, for example /usr/local/bin/defaultwordprocessor, which are scripts that will execute the correct application. I am getting everything to work via these default handlers, so that they are the only place modifications will need to be made. I have now modified /etc/mailcap to use these -- both Sylpheed and Mozilla reference /etc/mailcap. The desktop icons were already setup in 1.0.5 to use them.
So, if any application installs, say for example a new wizz-bang web browser, and it is wanted for it to become the new default web browser, then edit /usr/local/bin/defaultbrowser. The file has the format:
#!/bin/sh
exec mozstart "$@"
For Barebones voicemail I need ogg, wav and mp3 to be opened by some sort of player
on receiving a wav attachment in sylpheed
placing this in "open with"
Code: Select all
gxine '%s'
You might also find this code useful (this would give us the potential for a "contact Puppy Linux Foundation"
or contact Puppy Developer
button on the desktop)
the code is all on one line
It opens sylpheed and a message
with a recipient
and header (I think you can not use space in header but underline is OK)
Code: Select all
sylpheed --compose mailto:void@goosee.com,foundation@puppylinux.com?subject=%Message from_Puppy_to_Barry&Body=%b&
