[Gambas-user] Get the default file manager

[vuott at tutanota.com]

...maybe, activating gb.desktop:

[code]
Public Sub Button1_Click()
     
  Dim df As DesktopFile
  Dim path As String
   
  path = "/path/of/file"  
    
  Print "The file '"; path; "' is associated with the following programs:"
 
  For Each df In DesktopFile.FromMime(DesktopMime.FromFile(path).Type)
    Print df.ProgramName  
  Next 
    
End
[/code]
