Description Hasso Tepper 2006-09-29 14:42:03 UTC
Version:           1.6 beta 1 (using KDE 3.5.4, compiled sources)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.16-ck12

Templates are installed now as .kst files. 

1) They should be really Open Document templates which have .ots extension, not .kst. (At least I can't open them as KSpread files).
2) .kst is used for program called kst (http://kst.kde.org).

While using --template command line argument, I always have to use filter chooser because of second issue. From command line:

# kspread --template /usr/local/kde/share/apps/kspread/templates/Business/PackingSlip.desktop
koffice (filter manager): WARNING: Can't open application/x-kst, trying filter chooser
Comment 1 Thomas Zander 2006-09-29 14:54:43 UTC
Are extentions registered somewhere? I know mimetypes are registered at IANA but openoffice invented different extentions for 100% the same documents. I'd say we should not copy that hack as there is no reason to do so.
Comment 2 Hasso Tepper 2006-12-29 19:30:36 UTC
I think that we should just ...
a) follow de facto "standards" program with much bigger user base sets
b) not to conflict our own (KDE) applications

If a) isn't suitable, please feel free to explain situation to the KST authors.
