Hi,
the current entry for GnuCash files in shared-mime-info used for fast
content detection mechanisms based on the file name extension on Linux
(at least in the Gnome Desktop) is the following:
<mime-type type="application/x-gnucash">
<comment>GnuCash spreadsheet</comment>
[... translations ...]
<generic-icon name="x-office-spreadsheet"/>
<glob pattern="*.gnucash"/>
<glob pattern="*.gnc"/>
<glob pattern="*.xac"/>
</mime-type>
I doubt that "spreadsheet" describes the type of data appropriately in a
lot of languages, so I ask what term might fit better. I would create a
new bug in the freedesktop bugzilla then, assuming that translators will
readily work on the new string before the next release of s-m-i.
Additionally, is it worth adding some magic into that
freedesktop.xml(.in) file as well?
Ciao,
