xdg-utils

Xdg-utils is a set of command line tools that assist applications with a variety of desktop integration tasks. About half of the tools focus on tasks commonly required during the installation of a desktop application and the other half focuses on integration with the desktop environment while the application is running. Even if the desktop components of your application are limited to an installer, configuration or management tool, Xdg-utils provides you with an easy way to enhance the usage experience of your customers by improving the integration of these components in the user's environment.

The following tools are included in xdg-utils 1.0:

xdg-desktop-menu Install desktop menu items
xdg-desktop-icon Install icons to the desktop
xdg-icon-resource Install icon resources
xdg-mime Query information about file type handling and install descriptions for new file types
xdg-open Open a file or URL in the user's preferred application
xdg-email Send mail using the user's preferred e-mail composer
