(Given that Emacs is usually the sole functioning text > editor when installed on Android systems.) I am not sure if it is possible to use wildcards like this. Nothing is said in the spec: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/0.9.5/ar01s07.html On the other hand, wildcards seems to work: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/232525/mimetype-desktop-entry-for-all-image-files So, your suggestion sounds reasonable. >> I thought that mimetypes is the common standard: >> https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml >> If not, it is indeed a problem. > > Does the IANA standard encompass Clojure files? Nope. It was just an example. Clojure files do not have a dedicated mimetype: $ xdg-mime query filetype ./project.clj text/plain Other source code files might though. For example, $ xdg-mime query filetype src/js.rs text/rust -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at . Support Org development at , or support my work at
