When I'm using PCManFM, I sometimes do the following. I right-click in an empty place in ~/, and choose Make new... --> Empty File. I type some text in it, like 'blabalballabl', and then I save it, e.g., as test.
Now, I double-click this file. Leafpad won't open the file, but instead PCManFM will say that the file is executable. It then asks if I want to execute the file or not.

I tried setting Foxit reader for Windows as my default pdf viewer in ubuntu 11.10. When I try double-clicking a pdf file in Nautilus I get a file not found error. I can open foxit and drag a file onto the foxit window but I would like to be able simply to double-click a file like all other programs.
Has anyone set a wine program as the default program for any file?
Any ideas?
