Description kde 2001-03-10 09:52:43 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           konqueror
Version:           KDE 2.1.0 
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Debian Package 4:2.1.0-0.potato2 (2.2)
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.2 20000220 (Debian GNU/Linux)
OS:                Linux 2.4.1 i586
OS/Compiler notes: 

Hi

maybe I just don't get it - but I'm trying to configure konqueror to treat *.gz files just as if they were uncompressed but shove them through its internal gzip filter first.

I.e. I want to be able to click on a .ps.gz file and konqueror starts the application that is associated with *.ps files and hands over the _uncompressed_ file. Same for .tif.gz or .html.gz or whatever.

I configured konqueror to handle application/x-gzip with the internal gzip filter (in the "embedding tab" in the file associations configuration dialog) and configured all other file associations correctly. But now konqueror tells me it doesn't know what to do with .gz files.

What's wrong here? 


Thanks

Jens

Hehe clever try but it won't work like that :)
