I can't be sure whether the existence of the latter prevents the /etc file being read, or just overrides it. In any case, the first matching rule is what is used, so if it's there it needs to be correct. > > I have in /etc/mc/mc.ext: > > > > include/image > > Open=feh %f > > View=feh %f ALL_FORMATS > > > > but that does not help > > I'm not sure what your 'include' directive is doing (it's impossible to > know without seeing the rest of your file). Try replacing that line with a > simpler 'shell/.jpg' or similar, restart mc, and see if it works. It looks as if you've just replaced the shell command with feh. I don't know what feh thinks of ALL_FORMATS, but it needs removing. Rant: I won't have feh on my system. man feh says "feh — image viewer and cataloguer" but it will happily modify your pictures (unless you set -r--r--r--) without a word, ie it's an EDITOR, not a viewer.
