handlr: Set imv as the default application for PNG files.
$ handlr set ${-png} ${imv-desktop}
try on your machine
This command uses a program called handlr
to set the default handler for PNG files to imv-desktop
.
Let's break it down further:
handlr
: This is the name of the program or command that is being executed. In this case, it is thehandlr
command.set
: This is an option or argument of thehandlr
command. It is used to specify that we want to set a default handler for a specific file type.${-png}
: This is a placeholder or variable representing the file type. In this case, it is the PNG file type. When the command is executed, this placeholder will be replaced with the actual value of the file type.${imv-desktop}
: Similarly, this is another placeholder representing the handler program. It will be replaced with the programimv-desktop
when the command is executed.
So, this command essentially sets imv-desktop
as the default program or handler for PNG files, which means that whenever you open a PNG file, it will automatically be opened by imv-desktop
.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
