With xdg-open, it is likely that on text an editor is opened, but it could also be a viewer. For the diff I don't know. But for directory browsing, I am not sure that it will work, on my system, it uses kdesvn because it registered MimeType=inode/directory; Maybe it is just that inode/directory should be reserved for directory browsers, and text for editors and not viewers. -- Pat -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
