I'm not sure exactly what you're using here, but since you mention Kedit, I'll assume you're talking about KDE and kfm. If you're using kfm, look at the 'Edit' menu option and choose 'Mime Types'. This will throw up all the mime links. Basically, have a poke around and figure out how they're set up, and then create a new one for whatever type you want. You could also try looking at kexplorer in the 'View' menu and select 'Options'. Unfortunately I'm not too clued up on how KDE handles its mime types, so I'm afraid I can't help you much more than this.

Thanks I have just tried this and the mime types are empty,but have been playng with it,its seems to put a copy in each folder :)

I don't have Kexplorer installed but will give it a try. Thanks
