## mime 
#  MIME-related options (handlers of various MIME types).

  ## mime.extension 
  #  Extension <-> MIME type association.

    ## mime.extension.mp4 <str>
    #  MIME-type matching this file extension ('*' is used here in place of
    #  '.').
    set mime.extension.mp4 = "video/mp4"

    ## mime.extension.webm <str>
    #  MIME-type matching this file extension ('*' is used here in place of
    #  '.').
    set mime.extension.webm = "video/webm"

    ## mime.extension.ogg <str>
    #  MIME-type matching this file extension ('*' is used here in place of
    #  '.').
    set mime.extension.ogg = "video/ogg"

    ## mime.extension.3gp <str>
    #  MIME-type matching this file extension ('*' is used here in place of
    #  '.').
    set mime.extension.3gp = "video/3gp"


  ## mime.handler 
  #  A file type handler is a set of information about how to use an external
  #  program to view a file. It is possible to refer to it for several MIME
  #  types -- e.g., you can define an 'image' handler to which
  #  mime.type.image.png, mime.type.image.jpeg, and so on will refer; or one
  #  might define a handler for a more specific type of file -- e.g., PDF files.
  #  Note you must define both a MIME handler and a MIME type association for it
  #  to work.

    ## mime.handler.video_player 

      ## mime.handler.video_player.unix 

        ## mime.handler.video_player.unix.ask [0|1]
        set mime.handler.video_player.unix.ask = 0
        ## mime.handler.video_player.unix.block [0|1]
        set mime.handler.video_player.unix.block = 1
        ## mime.handler.video_player.unix.program <str>
        set mime.handler.video_player.unix.program = "vlc -V aa %"

      ## mime.handler.video_player.unix-xwin 

        ## mime.handler.video_player.unix-xwin.ask [0|1]
        set mime.handler.video_player.unix-xwin.ask = 0
        ## mime.handler.video_player.unix-xwin.block [0|1]
        set mime.handler.video_player.unix-xwin.block = 0
        ## mime.handler.video_player.unix-xwin.program <str>
        set mime.handler.video_player.unix-xwin.program = "vlc -V aa %"



  ## mime.type 
  #  Handler <-> MIME type association. The first sub-tree is the MIME class
  #  while the second sub-tree is the MIME type (ie. image/gif handler will
  #  reside at mime.type.image.gif). Each MIME type option should contain
  #  (case-sensitive) name of the MIME handler (its properties are stored at
  #  mime.handler.<name>).

    ## mime.type.video 

      ## mime.type.video.mp4 <str>
      set mime.type.video.mp4 = "video_player"
      ## mime.type.video.webm <str>
      set mime.type.video.webm = "video_player"
      ## mime.type.video.ogg <str>
      set mime.type.video.ogg = "video_player"
      ## mime.type.video.3gp <str>
      set mime.type.video.3gp = "video_player"

Hey, this is great! Thank you!
