mimeo[1] is a tool written in python that uses MIMEtype file
associations to determine which application should be used to open a
file. Besides, it is possible to use regular expressions to associate
files with programs.

A nice tool developed by someone from the arch community. I switched to it from
mimeopen because mimeopen did not work well with non-ascii characters in file
names for me.
Hope this list is the right place for patches.
