The config file already has place for user override (see /etc/mailcap). After that, we can work on a great GUI (what a buzz word this GUI) tool for configuring mailcap himself. I don't know much about dictionnary but this can also be done, or maybe a mecanism similar to the window manager are better? Good documentation and the great support given by the debian groups are often better than letting the user decided quickly if 1 is greater than 3... -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fabien Ninoles E-mail: fab@tzone.org WebPage: http://www.callisto.si.usherb.ca/~94246757 You can get my public key from your nearest public keys server!
