Hi list,
Thanks for the replies. They are helpful.
To explain a little further:
We have a Linux application written in wxPython with Postgresql and (mostly) Windows clients.
Goglobal gives us the possibility to export a file to the client and subsequently start the file. The mime type of the file determines which program is started on the client.
In the client a trigger should start the application with the file that is passed. -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Paul van der Vlis <paul@vandervlis.nl> Verzonden: za 19-06-10 22:14:25 Aan: x2go-dev@lists.berlios.de; Onderwerp: Re: [X2go-dev] Extra functions requested in x2go

Hi List,
First of all,I am very impressed by the work you have done and would like to thank all involved.
We are a company that provides a kind of CRM system over the net to our customers. (See www.lindix.nl, text is Dutch)
Currently we use GoGlobal but we want to switch to x2go. However, there is a missing piece. In GoGlobal it is possible to start an application on the client by the use of the extension of the file. So I can write an Excel sheet in my application and subsequently start the file, the result is that a local session opens on the client with the Excel sheet.
I know GoGlobal but I don't understand your question completely. Are you talking about a Windows client what shows a Linux application? Or are you using GoGlobal for a Windows application in a Linux environment?
I realize that there are security issues here, but for our application this would be a real bonus.
Is there any chance this could be implemented? If the number of hours involved is reasonable, we even would pay for that.
I am sure Heinz or Oleksandr can help you if you want to pay something for development of OSS.
But I wonder this is a problem, maybe you can tell a bit more about it. Normally you can do this kind of things with a .desktop-file in /usr/share/applications.
There are some problems with the latest openoffice from backports, this command will help:
update-desktop-database /usr/share/applications
This is not X2go related.
With regards, Paul van der Vlis.
