You might be interested in the "see" command from 'run-mailcap'. Basically the /etc/mailcap file has a bunch of mime-types and an associated command to run. There's usually a test for X via the $DISPLAY variable. I think it's in the "metamail" package. -- MegaHAL quote: I think a blowpipe is a marijuana cigarrette. It'll get you deleted!
