[solved] Zim opens txt file with Wine Notepad

I'm using KDE4.
In Zim, Tools / Edit source opens the txt file with Wine Notepad. I guess this is the default association for txt files in GTK. How can I change this without using Gnome?

Yes ,desktop and mimelist files in ~/.local. I have survived these anomalies to learn its much less pain to use windoze apps under virtualization environment than under emulation. And poweroff the virtual machine whenever it hangs.

If you've opened notepad, you won't be able to save the file ON the server, so your question doesn't make sense. Please search, read a book, SAP documentation etc. before posting further basic questions.

When I open .txt files with firefox all underscores disappear. How do I fix this?

I have a list of websites in a .txt file and they all contain underscores. When I open the file with firefox all underscores turn into spaces, so that the links don't actually work.

Can you post a short excerpt of this text file?
Note that you usually need an extension to open links in a text file via a left-click with the mouse.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

How to open and edit "*.txt" file with "Notepad"

Hello guys!
I'm facing problem with SharePoint 2010 Enterprise and got no clue how to solve it.
What I want to do is to open "*.txt" (which is placed to "Documents Library") in "Notepad", so I could edit it and save (publish) directly to SharePoint from "Notepad".
If I upload any Microsoft office File, such as "*.docx", "*.xls", etc - it works as it should - document opens in appropriate application and everybody is happy.
But, when I create documents library, put some "*.txt" file there and click on it - it opens in new browser's tab as text, so I cannot edit the file.
What I tried to do is to activate feature "Open Documents in Client Applications by Default" - not happy.
Edit "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\XML\DOCICON.XML" - I've modified "txt" entry as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<DocIcons>
    <ByProgID>
    </ByProgID>
    <ByExtension>
<Mapping Key="txt" Value="ictxt.gif" EditText="Notepad" OpenControl="SharePoint.OpenDocuments"/>
    </ByExtension>
    <Default>
        <Mapping Value="icgen.gif"/>
    </Default>
</DocIcons>
Still not happy.
So, how do I make this stuff work?

Found this link which has more information on this scenario:

I want to open a .txt file in the Notepad editor

Dear all,
In my java program, when i click on a menu item, i need a .txt file to be opened in the notepad editor. Can someone please send to tell me how?
Thanks

Is not very portable to specify the absolute path of notepad. If you pass the program to your friend it might not run!
I usually specify only the document.txt and the shell exe file (in windows xp cmd.exe), then the operating system think how to open the file. You can setting the operating system to open all the .txt file with notepad. It is very easy.
The your .txt document in your classpath, so is relative and not absolute.
Here the code:
String cmd = "cmd.exe /c start ";
               String file = "mydocuemnt/manual.txt";
              try {
                    Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd + (ClassLoader.getSystemResource(file)).toString());
               } catch (IOException ee) {
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "The document dosn't exist!",
                              "Document not finded!", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
                    ee.printStackTrace();
               } bye

Error in opening a file with name in chinese characters with Runtime.exec

The issue at hand is when I try to open a file with file name containing chinese characters in a localized environment in Windows through the following java code:
Runtime.exec("rundll32 SHELL32.DLL,ShellExec_RunDLL {File_With_FileName_containing_Chinese_character}");
the following error is thrown by windows.
Cannot open file "C:\??.txt".
with the exception
java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: [Ljava.lang.String;@f5da06 error=2

When I try to use the same command (shown below) from the Windows Run command, the file opens sucessfully
rundll32 SHELL32.DLL,ShellExec_RunDLL {File_With_FileName_containing_Chinese_character}
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance

Opening a file with custom FileDialog. (VERY URGENT)

hi everybody,
I have a problem and stuck. I have developed a MDI application that provides all function like open saved files, create new, edit and lots of other. It only opens, save ,edit etc the graphical diagrams inside JInternalFrames. I have an icon on my desktop when clicked opens this Application. Just like Editplus, Word or some other application when you click on the icon it opens that. Same way I have created such functionality.
Now instead of this I have created a custom FileDialogfrom which the user selects this application and is opened. Now I have small icon for this FileDialog on the desktop when opened gives the interface to select the files to be opened. My FileDialog just looks like the FileDialog but some more functionality and more components like JComboBox, Jlist, JtextField, JButtons etc. in it and have removed some of them. I am extending JDialog. But now my probelm is when you select a file and click open, it should open the selected file. How can I achive this functionality in my custom FileDialog as I am not extending FileDialog and as it is built in the FileDialog. How can I open the files with any extension in it's related application e.g .doc files to be opened in MicrosoftWord, .txt to be opened in notepad, .c or .cpp in Visual Studio C++ etc.
How can I put this kind of functionality in my custom FileDialog. It's really important for me please any comments will help me alot. Thanks for the help

Hello,
I think you can write :
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("start.exe " + MyFileDialog.getDirectory() + MyFileDialog.getFile());
So, "start.exe" choose the application (not valid for NT machine), ".getDirectory()" return the PATH and ".getFile()" return the NAME.

I need to open a file with an associated programm.

I need to open a file with an associated programm.
I'm looking for two solutions:
1. for Linux/Solaris/Unix/...
2. for Windows 95/98/Nt/2000
For Windows I have done this with command line
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler " + uSavePath);
but it doesn't work on windows2000. We need an universal solution.
For linux
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("netscape openURL " + uSavePath);
But may be anybody know better solution?

You are right. For unix better solution is that my program to care about all association itself. As I undestend now it's a common solution for unix applications.
But for windows it will be ugly enough. I've found another way for windows
Win2000/NT: "cmd /C start filename /B"
other Wins: start filename
for linux I've stopped at doing this via Netscape.
May be in future I'll make my property file.
start filename - on Win95(may be 98/ME) returns -1 if file not assotiated with a programm, and doesn't shows openWith dialog. It solved using something like "rundll32 shell32, OpenWith filename"
It's all for those how will solve this problem in future.

Open a file with its defualt associated application

is there any way to open any file with its defualt associated application from a java program ?
Example:
In Windows I have a file example.txt and, from a java program, I would like opening it by the defualt associated application Notepad.
Thx

Can't open a file with spaces on the filename.

Lets say I have a file:
/home/orv/Open - Me - Please.txt
When I double click to open that file with any program, the result is something like this:
"Unable to find /home/orv/Open%20-%20Me%20-%20Please.txt"
I'm not sure what to call that process of converting the file name so I've been unable to google it up to find a fix or a way to change the behavior of the file manager.
I've checked the settings in Nautilus and nothings there. Any clues? Thank you!

I tried removing everything in my home directory to erase all settings, still the same problem.
I tried using a different file manager and still the same problem.
Here's another example of my problem and its quirks:
Lets say I have a file called:
/home/orv/I am a Movie.avi
In nautilus or thunar, double-clicking that file so I can play it with Mplayer will give an error:
Failed to open file:///home/orv/I%20am%20a%20Movie.avi
However, when I drag and drop using the file manager into Mplayer, it works.
So my problem is this automatic conversion of whitespaces into the %20 which I don't know how to turn off.

When I try to open a file with adobe Bridge it will say that the parent application is not active, how can I fix this??

Opening a file with a .WPS Ext.

Does anyone know how to open a file with the Extension of .WPS? The file was created on a PC but i can't get it to open on my MAC. Maybe i don't have the right program. What program creates this Extension? Sorry if this is not the right place for this question.

.wps is for a +Word Perfect+ file. make a backup copy and try changing the extension to .doc or .txt and you might be able to open and read it.
else, you may take a look @ http://www.dataviz.com/products/maclinkplus/mlp_xlators.html. AFAIK, *open office* should be able to open .wps files, too.

Cannot open pdf files with Firefox's built-in pdf viewer

This just started (I think) with Firefox 37.01. This is on Win7-X64. I cannot open pdf files with the Firefox built-in pdf viewer. If I click on the file or try to open it from within Firefox, it brings up a "opening filename.pdf" message. If I select the "Open with" radio button as 'Firefox (default),' it just keeps looping on this process; it never opens. In Tools => Options => Applications, Portable Document Format (PDF) is indicated as 'Preview in Firefox.' I've never had any other PDF viewer installed on this computer. I've tried disabling all plug-ins and extensions, but it still doesn't work. I searched for solutions but haven't found any for this specific issue.
Thanks for the help.

Hello,
Have you tried, to start Firefox in safemode you can do so by following these steps
'''If Firefox is open,''' you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
* Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
'''If Firefox is not running,''' you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
;[[Image:SafeMode-Fx35]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
