When I try that I get an error that 0instal is not present. It isn't, and I
don't want it.

I've tried the MIME Editor app, but since I've moved to debian/squeeze I get an
assertion error. I looked to see if there was an updated package, but the
website links don't actually go to the app at all - this seems to be true of
quite a lot of apps :(

Another oddity is that the rosegarden file type (.rg) is listed, but when you
try to set the run action it instead comes up with .gzip

I get the feeling that much oof the ROX desktop isn't being maintained anymore
- I really hope I'm wrong :( :(

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
