Description Ross Burton 2004-06-02 20:48:21 UTC
There is no MIME type for OMF (scrollkeeper) files.

There doesn't appear to be one registered as yet, so fixing this will involve
either talking with the OMF people to register one, or to make one up.

scrollkeeper.xml
Comment 2 Christophe Fergeau 2004-11-01 13:47:40 UTC
Are omf files specific to scrollkeeper? If so, do you have any idea if the
scrollkeeper maintainers could be convinced to register scrollkeeper mime types
with shared-mime-info in their package?

(sorry dudes, gratuitous test comment, please ignore)

scrollkeeper.xml

><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
><mime-info xmlns="http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info">

Don't make a separate file out of those types, they should be integrated in
freedesktop.org.xml.in

>  <mime-type type="text/x-omf">
>    <comment>Open Metadata Framework file</comment>

mark those as translatable (_comment instead of comment), and make use of the
acronym and expanded-acronym

>    <glob pattern="*.omf"/>

Is there a magic for this mime-type?

>  </mime-type>
></mime-info>
Comment 5 Bastien Nocera 2007-02-05 09:33:54 UTC
Given that scrollkeeper is the only application using those files, I'm not sure it's any use for us to have in shared-mime-info.
