-------------------------------------

In the File associations, add new type.
say 'application/x-gambas2'
add Filename pattern '*.gambas'
enter description 'Gambas exe'

Add application and type 'gbr2' or '/usr/bin/gbr2' in the textbox.
press OK

Verify now with the Edit button at tab 'Application'
Command is gbr2 and use the Advanced options, set 'Run in Terminal' on

Try out on a *.gambas file
The terminal  stays open for duration of the gambas app works :)

If all works OK then 'run in terminal' can switched off.

Take a look in '/home/ron/.kde/share/mimelnk/application'
Find the file 'x-gambas2.desktop' with content:

[Desktop Entry]
Comment=Gambas executable
Hidden=false
Icon=
MimeType=application/x-gambas2
Patterns=*.gambas
Type=MimeType

goto '/home/ron/.kde/share/applnk/.hidden'
Find file 'gbr2.desktop' with content:

[Desktop Entry]
Comment=
Comment[en_US]=
Exec=gbr2
GenericName=
GenericName[en_US]=
Icon=
InitialPreference=2
MimeType=application/x-gambas2
Name=gbr2
Name[en_US]=gbr2
Path=
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=false
TerminalOptions=
Type=Application
X-DCOP-ServiceType=none
X-KDE-SubstituteUID=false
X-KDE-Username=

These both files are now new on my box and it works.
SuSE 9.2, KDE 3.5.0 (a) SuSE version 

If you add these as files direct you must run kbuildsycoca !!!

Have fun
