[bugtracker at ...3416...]

http://gambaswiki.org/bugtracker/edit?object=BUG.925&from=L21haW4-

Antonio OREFICE reported a new bug.

Summary
-------

Desktopmime.fromfile().geticon does not identify executables

Type             : Bug
Priority         : Medium
Gambas version   : 3.8
Product          : Unknown


Description
-----------

This code:
--
Private pic As New PictureBox(fmain)

Private pic As New PictureBox(fmain)

Public Sub Form_Open()
  Debug DesktopMime.FromFile("/usr/bin/ls").Pattern '<--this writes "txt"
  pic.picture = DesktopMime.FromFile("/usr/bin/ls").GetIcon(128).Picture
  Debug DesktopMime.FromFile("/usr/bin/pacman") < - - this writes "txt"
  pic.Move(0, 0, 200, 200)
End
--

Produces a generic textfile icon, instead of the executable icon.
ls is clearly an elf executables, while pacman is a script file.
