Hey Bryce,
I was toying with the idea of working up my new third party
software - WinBig (TM) - entirely as an exercise in testing
xdg-utils.
My thought was to have a process that was fairly heavy on user
interaction, as that struck me as necessary. (e.g. Did the menu
show up? Did the right app open blat.mime?)
But then I recalled that you'd started down that road, and
I didn't want to duplicate effort. I took a quick glance,
and didn't see 'make test' in the current tip; have you had any further
thoughts with this?
Cheers,
Jeremy
