[Thunar-dev] changing default "double click action" for shellscripts....

[William Hewitt]

i want to replace the default  "double click" action for shellscript 
mimetypes - currently a double click tries to  "execute" the script and 
I would like it to instead invoke a pop up menu I have created based on 
on mimetype....

This popup works for every other file I have tested, with the exception 
of scripts (perl, python, shell, etc...) that have the execute bit set.....

what is the thought behind the thunar behaviour - insisting on executing 
scripts?
Is there something I am missing here? It seems like this is counter 
intuitive and a bit unsafe..... Perhaps if I understood the reasoning 
behind this I might want to change my strategy...

Anyway, I wrote a popup menu that allows the enduser to choose through 
various options (Edit, View, Convert, Print, Publish, Execute) based on 
the mime type, but I dont know where to turn off this "execute" override 
so my menu appears on "double clicking the script, rather the "open with 
execute" default for scripts......

I am assuming that Thunar is setting this somewhere. If not Thunar, is 
it GTK? Can someone tell me where this magic "open with execute" is - so 
I  can change it?
