@guenter - I've downloaded rvjmimeedit.7z, and will suss it out.

Why do we need to discontinue the 1.5.4 method of adding mimetypes/internet content associations?  It doesn't [b]look[/b] broken :s

[/quote]

1.) Hope all works.

2.) 1.5.4 has two MimeTypes editors. An ancient one that was created & maintained by alain, kko and me. It edited & used mimetypes.rtf, was hard to use and could add new items.

And another, never editor by kko. It is in the PreferencesPanel, has a pre-definded list thus could not add new mimetypes but is easy to use.

kko and me realized that hardly anyone used the first. So we agreed in an old forum thread to discontinue adding it to K-Meleon by default. When 1.6beta came I realized that [b]it also was broken[/b] beyond my ability to repair. disrupted pointed me to a fork based on the same original code which works for K-Meleon 1.6. So I merged the codes for the few that want to use the old editor and uploaded it to my K-Meleon site.
