Description

This is what the chirp.desktop file looks like now:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=0.1
Encoding=UTF-8
Type=Application
Exec=chirpw
Icon=chirp.png
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=false
Categories=Application;HamRadio
MimeType=inode/directory
Name=CHIRP
Comment=CHIRP Radio Programming Tool
GenericName=CHIRP Radio Programming Tool

Why is the line "MimeType=inode/directory" present?
I think this should just be removed.

Updated by Volker Tanger 5 months ago

"MimeType=inode/directory"
indicates that CHIRP is supposed to be used for opening a directory (e.g. when plugging in a USB stick).

That is NOT what a user wants as default action: opening Chirp instead of a file explorer.

MimeType should be changed for a more fitting or at least unobtrusive one.
