handlr-set(1)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so this is handlr-set(1) from the General Commands Manual, and the page is literally handlr-set - Set the default handler for mime/extension. bestie, it's giving “tell your system who owns this file type” energy ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the whole incantation, no cap:

handlr set [-n|--disable-notifications] [-t|--force-terminal-output]
[-v|--verbose]... [-q|--quiet]... [-h|--help] <MIME> <HANDLER>

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Set the default handler for mime/extension — that’s the main character job 🫶

It overwrites currently set handler(s) for the given mime/extension. so yeah, it’s not “add a little suggestion,” it’s “this is the handler now,” periodt 💅

Asterisks can be used as wildcards to set multiple mimetypes. When expand_wildcards is true in ~/.config/handlr/handlr.toml, wildcards will be expanded into matching mimes rather than added verbatim. iykyk 🌈

File extensions are converted into their respective mimetypes in mimeapps.list. cute little transformation moment 🦋

🚨 heads up: Currently does not support regex handlers. that’s the vibe check — no regex handler support here, fr fr.

cute sign-off: this was the set page for handlr-set(1) in the General Commands Manual — source/manual vibe: General Commands Manual, page: set, manual title: handlr-set(1), and no extra version/date line is stamped here, so we’re rolling with the footer energy as-is 💜✨
