Re: MIME

[Hassan Aurag <aurag crm umontreal ca>]

 The lazy way, afaik, is to use the very nice and various python mime 
modules. You can then write some C code that access these modules!

 But then, I only know python to the point I am becoming a bigot!

 On the other, I have noticed some mime functions in gnome-libs.

 I don't know if this helps: but a 
	"locate mime |grep gnome"
 turns out the following:
