Iceweasel file associations
As much as I really don't like it Iceweasel has some preconceived notions
about how to open files based upon their filename extension.
Specifically I'm thinking with respect to .c and .patch files, though
others may apply. The problem is that Iceweasel wants to open these
files with less which never happens successfully. Most often, when I'm
trying to view the files in the web browser, it's because I want quick
access for copy and paste. When the requester appears asking how I would
like to open the file I have tried to manually direct it to /usr/lib/
iceweasel/iceweasel and firefox-bin. Both result in the creation of a
new tab on the active window and the reappearance of the requester asking
me how I'd like to open the file.
How can I change this behavior to "Just show me the $#%*'in file as plain
text in a browser tab"?
