2 Editor for the Shared MIME Database
7 MIME types are used to identify types of file. For example, a plain text
8 file (such as this README) would have the MIME type 'text/plain'. An HTML
9 page would be 'text/html' and a PNG image's type is 'image/png'.
11 ROX-Filer uses MIME types to decide which application to run when you click
12 on a file, and what icon to give it.
14 ROX now uses the freedesktop.org Shared MIME Database to deal with MIME
15 types. MIME-Editor is a graphical editor for this database.
