It turns out my markdown files - extension .md - are of the "Genesis ROM" file type in Centos 6. Googling did not turn up any obvious places to change this in Gnome - neither in my local directory or in /etc/gnome.

Where would I be able to change this default file type for files with the extension .md? I have already changed the default application to geany (with the markdown extension.)

Thank you.

have a look at these:
/etc/mime.types (file)
/usr/share/mime/ (dirs)
/usr/share/mimelnk/ (dirs)
/usr/share/mime-info (dir)

grep for '\.md' and/or for 'Genesis ROM' in there.

Just adding your own line to /etc/mime.types may look nice, but is possibly not what you want, more likely a new entry in a file or directory under ~/.local/share/mime/

Have a nice weekend

Files in ~/.local/share/mime also seem to have been automatically generated by update-mime-database and should not be edited. Should I still create a new file for the ".md" extension and add it to this directory?
