=head1 NAME

File::MimeInfo::Applications - Find programs to open a file by mimetype

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use File::MimeInfo::Magic;
  use File::MimeInfo::Applications;

  my $file = '/foo/bar';
  my $mimetype = mimetype($file)
      || die "Could not find mimetype for $file\n";

  my ($default, @other) = mime_applications($mimetype);

  if (defined $default) {
      $default->system($file)
  }
  else {
	  # prompt user with choice from @others
	  # ...
  }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module tries to find applications that can open files
with a certain mimetype. This is done in the way suggested by
the freedesktop Desktop Entry specification. This module is
intended to be compatible with file managers and other applications that
implement this specification.

This module depends on L<File::DesktopEntry> being installed.

To use this module effectively you need to have the desktop-file-utils
package from freedesktop and run update-desktop-database after installing
new .desktop files.
See L<http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/desktop-file-utils>.

At the moment of writing this module is compatible with the way Nautilus (Gnome)
and with Thunar (XFCE) handle applications for mimetypes. I understand KDE
is still working on implementing the freedesktop mime specifications but will
follow. At the very least all perl applications using this module are using
the same defaults.

=head1 EXPORT

All methods are exported by default.

=head1 METHODS

=over 4

=item C<mime_applications(MIMETYPE)>

Returns an array of L<File::DesktopEntry> objects. The first
is the default application for this mimetype, the rest are
applications that say they can handle this mimetype.

If the first result is undefined there is no default application
and it is good practice to ask the user which application he wants
to use.

=item C<mime_applications_all(MIMETYPE)>

Like C<mime_applications()> but also takes into account applications that
can open mimetypes from which MIMETYPE inherits. Parent mimetypes tell
something about the data format, all code inherits from text/plain for example.

=item C<mime_applications_set_default(MIMETYPE, APPLICATION)>

Save a default application for this mimetype. This action will
affect other applications using the same mechanism to find a default
application.

APPLICATION can either be a File::DesktopEntry object or
the basename of a .desktop file.

=item C<mime_applications_set_custom(MIMETYPE, COMMAND)>

Save a custom shell command as default application.
Generates a DesktopEntry file on the fly and calls
C<mime_applications_set_custom>.
Returns the DesktopEntry object.

No checks are done at all on COMMAND.
It should however contain at least one word.

=back

=head1 NOTES

At present the file with defaults is
F<$XDG_DATA_HOME/applications/defaults.list>.
This file is not specified in any freedesktop spec and if it gets standardized
it should probably be located in C<$XDG_CONFIG_HOME>. For this module I tried
to implement the status quo.
