-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Certainly! First, look at your lynx.cfg and make sure it has "GLOBAL_MAILCAP" or something like that defined, and edit that file it refers to. On redhat and debian systems its /etc/mailcap but on slackware, the user needs to define this. Now, look at your mime.types (usually /etc/mime.types, but on slackware this needs to be created as well) and see if it has entries for the pls extension. If not, add a mime type. Your mime type and the server's mime type must match, use D in links and it will give you a content-type. Mine looks like this: audio/x-scpls pls Then go back to lynx.cfg and make sure it has the global mime type file set to /etc/mime.types. Now here comes some bad news. Some servers, ACB radio for example, have the pls file as text/plain. In this situation, you don't want to have freeamp played on the text/plain mime type, so you can't do anything except download the pls file and set freeamp loose on it. However, if it has a mime type for pls and you've added it, now put the following in your /etc/mailcap file (or wherever you defined it to be in lynx.cfg): audio/x-scpls; freeamp %s (substitute the mime type if necessary) That's it. The same thing applies to other file types as well.
