[opensuse] Desktop mime rules for a directory
I doubt this is possible. But I have to ask: I would like to add a MIME type / application link for a directory based on the possible existence of files with a certain extension in that directory. Or even the existence of a specific named file in that directory. The reason is that these directories contain data from a measurement session of one of our applications. At the command line (where I live), the directory name can be given to access various files in the directory. One need not enter the directory or use the directory/filename. When one needs to operate on hundreds of such directories, this is a real bonus. I would like a similar feature on the desktop. Right-click on the folder, and the various app options are presented. But these should only be presented if the directory is 'one of ours'. The directory name itself is not something I can play with. So I cannot make a rule based on that. I know that some other OS detect, say, a folder if MP3s. If you open the folder, it instead starts the MP3 player. Not exactly what I would want personally. But for our data sets, this would be quite nice. Any ideas? I am targeting KDE. But I think these rules are more generally defined and are used by other desktops.
