# Opening files with specific programs
`xdg-open` looks up a file's mimetype, then determines which application to use
to open it.
The local database for applications to use is in `~/.config/mimeapps.list`. Need
a `.desktop` file, which can be created under `~/.local/share/applications/`.
## Setting defaults
Easiest to do with `mimeopen` (from `perl-file-mimeinfo` on Arch):
mimeopen -d <file>
# will prompt to select a program from a list
## Default browser
The relevant mime types are:
x-scheme-handler/http=
x-scheme-handler/https=
For qutebrowser, just copied the `.desktop` from [the repo](https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/blob/master/misc/org.qutebrowser.qutebrowser.desktop).
