<br>
To be specific, I find that if I use LibreOffice Writer to create an .odt file, a double-click on the file in pcmanfm results in AbiWord opening the file.<br>
<br>
I would like LibreOffice to open odt files, AbiWord to open abw files, and leafpad to open plain text files. But lxsession-default-apps merely sets a "Document" launcher.<br>
<br>
Can set up finer control to open some files according to their extension?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
