A while back I added the following to my config.

AddToMenu DOCMenu "Documents" Title
+ MissingSubmenuFunction FuncFVWMMenuDIrectory
+ "Documents" Popup /home/brian/Documents

With the hope that it would pull up a llst of documents in my home
documents directory and then easily select a document
and open it. Well the function does pull up the list of
documents/directories and opens subdirectories and files, but all the
documents open in "vi" and not in the application designated by the
file extension type ie .pdf, .ods, .doc, or .jpg. 

How or what is needed so that the file will open with the
proper application?  I thought it was an issue related to getting the
function to acknowledge mime type of the file, but perhaps it is
something else more basic? 

Suggestions would be appreciated.
