Title: How to associate files to UGENE in Ubuntu (with icons)
Post by Agu on May 29^th, 2012 at 2:56pm

Hi!
I've studied a little bit the mime types and found the way to associate the different files to UGENE in Ubuntu (I'm using 12.04). Also, I made icons and a script. In order to work, "icons.tar.gz" and "ugene.xml" should be placed in your home folder. The script can be placed anywhere but remember to make it executable (right click/"Properties"/"Permissions"/"Allow executing file as program"). Then double click and choose "Run in terminal".

Currently, the files associated are:
*.fa
*.gb
*.aln
*.uprj
*.uwl
*.uql

Note:
The fasta and genbank icons are modified versions of this one:

Update: forgot to add a key line to the script.

That's a great tip, thank you! I think it could even be oficially integrated into Ugene's Ubuntu build. :D

Hello, folks!

I created simple script for associating files to UGENE.
See it in our bug-tracker: UGENE-765

Could You try it please and give us your feedback? :)

Where could I get this script? As far as I understand, it is supposed to work in other linuxes as well, right?

Here is the the direct link to the archive with the script and icons:

They (script and icons) are available as an attachment to the corresponding issue in our bug-tracker:
https://ugene.unipro.ru/tracker/browse/UGENE-765

It will be great if you try it and tell us if everything is all right or you met some problems.

Thanks!
