Do the  File associations not work in KDE Control

Ok, I'll add this.

Just one question, what exactly is audio/(x-)basic
(.au) for an format, is it compressed or big
endian ?

** If it's big endian, would it make sense to
support it on big endian systems instead of wav 
(which I think is only little endian) ?

** Would it make sense, to add a Configuration
Dialog page to let the user choice, which
mime-types should be accepted, to override the
defaults ?

Kind regards
