(Note: your new open “command” will work with any type of file as long as there is a default app associated with it.)

@aral
There was some other xdg-command to change that.

But I guess, GNOME has a way to do so via control center as well.

@aral I aliased `xgd-open` to `open`. That also works for me.

@aadil Yep. I prefer abbreviations for this sort of thing as they expand into the actual command so I don’t forget what the actual command is (e.g., for when I’m on a new machine or someone else’s, etc.)
