I understand what you're saying :-\ It makes sense. I think that
the bug is probably in the xorg documentation package (because it uses
*.PS instead of *.ps). I don't exactly know how to file a bug report
(or even if it is necessary), so I think that I might just use
file-roller as is. I think that I can add my own application to the
list of "Recent applications" and "open" the files that way. Thanks to
all for your helpful replies!

Recently I wanted to browse the xorg documentation (xorg-x11-doc
package) which I downloaded and installed for my system (CentOS 4).
This package contains compressed postscript files (*.PS.gz) which I
need to open with file-roller. When I open these files the postscript
file appears in the archive but when I try to open the postscript file
(from file-roller), there are no "Available applications". If I extract
the file I can then right click on the file in nautilus and select
either "Open with 'PostScript Viewer'" or "Open with 'KGhostView'".
This is where I think file-roller is not doing what it's supposed to
do. Is this wrong? Is there some setting I'm missing? Thanks for
your input, it's very helpful.
