Application defaults.. - indigofan - 09-03-2020

Where are the file types handled for pointing to a specific application? I have installed some software and removed it, but now ImageViewer is no longer firing up, I changed it to be the default from the Toolchest->Customize->Utilities but when I double click on an SGI, Tiff, or other app, the images won't open.

So, would like to know what I need to edit to get the handling of file types to the defaults set up again.

Thanks.

A reboot seems to of cleared any previous file type associations, would still be nice to know where IRIX holds the relationships..

Also discovered the command showfiles, which will show all files installed by inst.
