13The Librarian Interface uses particular application programs to open particular
14file types. This section explains how to assign and edit these file
15associations.

17
18To alter file associations open the "File" menu and click "File
19Associations...".
20<p></p>
21To add an association, select the target file extension from the pull-down
22list, or type in a new extension (do not include the "."). Next either type
23command that launches the desired application in the appropriate field, or
24choose the application from the "Browse" dialog. "%1" can be used in the launch
25command to insert the name of the file being opened. Once these are filled out,
26"Add" is enabled and can be clicked to add the association.
27<p></p>
28To edit an association, select an existing file extension. Any existing
29associated command is shown in the launch command field. Edit it, and then
30click "Replace".
31<p></p>
32To remove an association, select an existing file extension and click "Remove".
33(The file extension remains in the "For Files Ending" pull-down list.)
34<p></p>
35File associations are stored in the Librarian Interface's main folder, in a file
36called "associations.xml".
