Summary: Enable file associations to Linux applications
Product: Wine
Version: 0.9.6.
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: wine-misc
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: tuharsky at misbb.sk
Hi,
our main business app ISS, based on Visual Foxpro 9, that we run under Wine too,
is able to print-to-file. This option is very useful for us, since we have
problems with printing from the ISS under wine since the ISS moved from VFP7 to
VFP9.
The ISS is able to automatically open the created file, so that user could just
print by few more clicks. However, ISS is unable to run the default Linux app
for, say, PDF.
Could Wine be able to handle the file associations in Linux way? I mean, first
look into registres, if any Window$ app available dosen't handle the particular
file. If not, use the MIME settings available from desktop environment (GNOME or
KDE).
I'm going to try installing Acrobat reader for Windows, however I feel it would
be much mor elegant if wine could automatically handle the file associations in
Linux way.
