.desktop integration for command line app

Hi, this is my first kde list post ;-)

I have a review request [1] up for tnef, a "transport neutral 
encapsulation format" (ie outlook rich text email attachment decoder.

Since this is really just a command line program, I spent a bit of time 
creating a shell script that can be called from gnome/nautilus file 
manager, and which creates a directory of similar name to the file to 
decode, and then extracts the contents of the archive into that folder.

Jason notes that this doesn't work for kde.

Unable to find any specific documents regarding this, I tried installing 
kdebase, and trying it myself. What I found was that the mime-type is 
known about, and dolphin shows the match terms that I have written. 
However, I am not automatically offered to extract the archive.

I was able to open with, choose the specific program/terminal/don't 
close, and then it works OK.

1. Would such integration of a command line program with the dolphin 
filemanager be welcome ?

2. Is there already kde/qt apps for extracting tnef archives guically 
(new word) ?

3. If not, where would be some info, on creating the open with 
association within the rpm package spec, or hints on what to actually do ?

Regards,

David Timms.
