I am trying to set up Netscape to be able to handle as many types of files as possible. One of the remaining types is midi. I have downloaded & compiled the tools to play midi, and tested the methodology on the command line: Then I put the following in /usr/local/lib/netscape/mine.types audio/x-aiff aif aiff aifc audio/x-midi mid MID midi MIDI audio/x-wav wav WAV I also put the following in /usr/local/lib/netscape/maicp: audio/x-midi; /usr/local/bin/timidity -idqq -o --Ow %s | /usr/local/bin/rplay - # FreeBSD has no wavplay utility either, but if someone # would care to port one then this can also be used. # plays WAV files audio/x-wav; /usr/local/bin/rplay %s > /dev/null 2>&1 # FreeBSD /dev/audio is sun compliant audio/basic; cat %s > /dev/audio can anyone tell me why this doesn't work? I still get the file download window, when I go to a location containing a .mid file. -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 404-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95.
