Mimer
A simple mimetype editor to set the most important default apps.
Currently these are:
- Browser
- Image Viewer
- Music Player
- Video Player
- Text Editor
Thanks to the work of Coderus now also Android Applications can be set as default. (You need Aliendalvik Control for this)
Also notice that since version 1.1.9.28 application set as default won't open specified files if the default app associated with it is already open. It will just switch to the already open default app.
To manually edit the mimeapps.list file from mimer you need to have tiny-edit installed.
If something goes wrong resetting everything should get rid of all modifications.

I will take a look into it. Though I hesitate to integrate it yet as I still want to make this app appear in harbour aswell were this isn't allowed for now.

For webbrowsing there is some tricks to make it work with dbus services files.

Here's an idea for a more graphical approach for the Mimer icon...
Just a suggestion, as always. :-)

A nice icon but somehow I don't see it fitting to the app itself.
The symbol on it looks like a weblink logo.

For some reason, customized preferences are displayed correctly just after I've set them, but when I re-open Mimer it displays default associations again.

This is a limitation at the moment.
I did not go to the length of implementing that yet.

This is good! Been waiting for this. Only thing that is bad is that your browser (Webcat) does not open urls, have to use web pirate for it.

Upps you are right. There seems to be a '%U' missing in the harbour-webcat.desktop file.
I will fix that with the next update.

Maybe Mimer editor could comply with the association rule set for text/plain (in my case, "finpad.desktop" instead of TinyEdit) in mimeapps.list?

Yeah makes sense.
I think I will add a text editor config button aswell so that you can configure the editor aswell.
The current default text editor is sailfish-notes which opens up the file fine but somehow is useless as it cannot save to that file directly.
Thats one of the reasons I did not include that yet.
I also thought that tinyedit is the only native texteditor out there (with a gui).

The default text editor in my initial configuration (SFOS 1.1.7.28) was "Documents", completely useless (doesn't open text files). I replaced it with "text/plain=finpad.desktop" in mimeapps.list.
FinPad is an improved fork of TinyEdit. See https://github.com/drcouzelis/finpad
