DESCRIPTION
       file-types-capplet This capplet allows  you  to  configure
       how  files  of  various types should be handled. File type
       (formally called MIME type) describes what  kind  of  data
       and in what format the file contains. For each of the file
       types, you can set the icon to be used by  the  File  Man-
       ager,  the default application to be used to open files of
       this type, etc. For example, file type image/jpeg is  used
       for  image  files in JPEG format; by default, it is opened
       using File Manager's built-in graphics viewer.
