• If you are using Nautilus as your File Browser (this is default for GNOME), then right click (left click for you southpaws that swap your buttons) on a file inside of your File Browser, then select properties, this should bring up a new window with file information for that file. Now, select the “Open With” tab. Here you can select an application to associate with files of the same type. • Nautilus can be gotten to from “Applications->File Browser” in GNOME, or by running nautilus from the command line.
