You might consider to use launcher
(http://thaumaturgy.net/~etgold/software/launcher/) instead.
The advantage is, that you have a single place only in your system to
register apps.
E.g., your xftree.reg would read, I think
(*) (launcher) ()
Similiar all other applikations.
Also, launcher detects the MIME type of a file instead of extension, which
is, IMHO, the better approach.
