Hi folks,

A thread on the Netsurf users mail list prompted me to add

image/webp WebP a66 .webp

To my mime map.


In Adjust 4.39 I could get to the Mimemap easily through Networking in
the Boot configuration window. Here in 5.28 I had to delve inside the
!Boot to find resources etc. A little task for the designers of future R5 builds perhaps.

I then noticed that the mimemap I had on 4.39, which came from Tim Hill
had many more entries than the generic 5.28 one.

Is it OK to put the Tim Hill one in 5.28 or will strange things happen?

It would take me a little while to interrogate both and coalesce all the entries.

I have had Tim's version on this Pi with 5.28 for some time. Nothing has
gone up in smoke so far...

The entries should be in alphabetical order by mime type so comparing
the two should be relatively easy. Please let me know if you find
anything in the 5.28 version that's not in mine so it can be
incorporated.

Will do.

http://timil.com/riscos/mimemap/mimemap should be fine on 5.28. Mime
mappings are a very generic thing. There are two useful commands:

*filer_run inetdbase:mimemap

That worked. Ta.

in a task window (or obey file) should 'open' the current mappings file
(from wherever a developer has hidden it!) in your editor of choice and

*ReadMimeMap (or *readm.)

saves having to reboot.

Hi,

Can anyone please tell me where the MimeMap is supposed to be in R 5.29?

In previous versions it was in Boot Choices Internet Files but I don't
have a Files directory in there.

A search with !Textseek turns up lots but all confusing.

Likewise using the task window leaves me none the wiser.

*show Inet$MimeMappings
Inet$MimeMappings : InetDBase:MimeMap

I must have one I think because...

*MimeMap
MIME type: text/css, RISC OS file type: &F79
Extensions:
css
MIME type: text/csv, RISC OS file type: &DFE
Extensions:
csv
MIME type: text/html, RISC OS file type: &FAF

etc, etc.....

Ta. Now discovered.

An ics calender file should have leapt into Organizer but it didn't so I
went searching.

Ta. That's where it was lurking.

What prompted me to search for it was the fact that I got an .ics file
which the machine didn't recognize.

I have a more fully populated Mimemap from another machine which I can substitute.

Thanks for all the help folks.
