I've updated the bug accordingly. However, as I said in the comment, I'd suggest implementing it as an "external viewer" option. The user could then make that "external viewer" a script that would route the file based on filetype, or one that popped up a pipe-to dialog, or a browser or similar app already designed to cope with a wide variety of formats, or whatever, as they desired. IOW, it would be more flexibile in that it wouldn't popup a pipe-to dialog every time, unless that was how the user wanted it and scripted the "external viewer" to handle things. I could even envision users posting their scripts to the list, for suggestions, improvements, and trading. Perhaps a couple of good ones would eventually make it to a "utilities" dir on pan.rebelbase, and/or one could be included in the default distribution, to be modified by individual users as desired. =8^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
