<p><big><strong>Configuring browsers to test Pingus levels</strong></big></p>
<p>When you click on the <em>play</em>-link, the Pingus level comment
system tells your web browser that the file it is about to download is
of MIME type <code>application/pingus-level</code>. To make it convenient
to test the levels, you should configure your browser to launch Pingus
automatically. Here's how:</p>
<p><strong><em>Mozilla / Netscape:</strong></em></p>
<ol>
<li>Click on a 'play' link</li>
<li>Pick "Open it with" and browse for Pingus executable</li>
<li>(OPTIONAL) Pingus levels don't contain any potentially dangerous
executable scripts so you might want to make sure "always show this
dialog before handling files of this type" is *not* checked</li>
<li>Click OK</li>
</ol>
<p>ALTERNATIVELY: choose from the menu Edit / Preferences /
Navigator / Helper Applications / New Type, add...</p>
<ul>
<li>MIME type "application/pingus-level"</li>
<li>Extension "pingus" and</li>
<li>Open it with "<path and name of pingus executable>".</li>
</ul>
<p>...and click OK.</p>
<p><strong><em>Konqueror:</strong></em></p>
<ol>
<li>Open Settings / Configure Konqueror / File Associations</li>
<li>Click 'Add'</li>
<li>Select 'application' as Group and type "pingus-level" as Type name.</li>
<li>Click OK</li>
<li>Click Filename Patterns / Add</li>
<li>Type "*.pingus" and click OK</li>
<li>Click Application Preference Order / Add</li>
<li>Browse for or type the path to Pingus executable</li>
<li>Click OK</li>
<li>(OPTIONAL) Write a "Pingus level" (or anything) as Description and choose a nice icon</li>
<li>Click Apply or OK</li>
</ol>
<p>You can now also click level files on local disk to try them out.</p>
<p><strong><em>Internet Explorer:</strong></em></p>
<p>(Written on a non-english XP workstation; your mileage may vary)</p>
<ol>
<li>Click on a 'play' link</li>
<li>Don't save the file, but rather Open/View it with an application</li>
<li>Opt to pick an application manually</li>
<li>(OPTIONAL) Pingus levels don't contain any potentially dangerous executable
scripts so you might want to clear the "warn before opening" checkbox</li>
<li>Click OK</li>
<li>Find Pingus with "browse" if it's not already listed</li>
<li>Make sure "always open this type of files in selected
application" (or something similar) is checked</li>
<li>Click OK</li>
</ol>
