Oh, thanks! In that case, I suppose I've run into three issues with the current implementation: 1. Looking at the file associations, editing them one-by-one seems unwieldy—there's way too many filetypes for me to set the correct secondary program for each one. 2. The connection between middle-clicking and being second in this list is hard to discover. 3. Middle-clicking a directory seems to be special-cased, which keeps me from mapping middle-click to opening the folder in VSCode. This could be solved either by having users open folders in a new tab with `ctrl+click` and making middle-click behave consistently,* or by allowing users to open the second option for either files or folders with something like `alt+(double) click`. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
