I have registered a new mime type application/folder-app with pattern *.App then i make touch test.App and mkdir tmp.App cwacha@lapis:~/Desktop$ kfile test.App/ My Application.App/: Folder (inode/directory) cwacha@lapis:~/Desktop$ kfile tmp.App test.App: Application (application/folder-app) How does kde find out the mime type? There must be some rules somewhere. What I want is a folder that starts a program when i open the folder in KDE. This is a workaround for the application folder in Mac OSX.
