Is there any way to change file associations in S60?
Specifically, I want text (.txt) files to open with LightNotepad.
I have searched the forums and there don't seem to be any new posts on the subject... the older posts say it's not possible. Has the situation changed?
EDIT: Btw, the phone in question is an E61 😊
Thanks.
In Symbian a file recognizer is the piece of software that decides which application "owns" a specific file type.
There are built-in recognizers in ROM, that may or may not be possible to override, and then you can also install new recognizers.
Changing the file associations without writing a recognizer to do so is not possible, as far as I understand.
