Handling of application/x-wais-source
cannot be modified.
Handling of the HDF/netCDF types cannot be turned off if Mosaic is built with native HDF/netCDF support, but can be overridden by a system or user mailcap file.
Handling of the remaining types can be turned off by setting the X
resource useDefaultTypeMap
to false
, or they
can be overridden by a system or user mailcap file.
Unrecognized MIME types will, by default, be passed to the "magic
viewer" mosaic-internal-dump
, which causes them to be
dumped to disk automatically (you will be given a dialog box to
specify a local filename). You can override this behavior by
specifying a viewer for type */*
(or *
) in a
system or user mailcap file.
Any MIME type can also be mapped (in a system or user mailcap file) to the "magic viewer"
mosaic-internal-dump
to cause it to dump to disk
automatically.
