Anyway, try this:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/82652/file-association-to-unlisted-application

It basically says that you have to append a trailing "%U" at "/usr/share/
applications/freemind.deskop" file, at the "Exec" stanza, that is:

***
Exec=/usr/bin/freemind %U
***

Now the application should be listed at the "Open with..." menu so you
can now set it as the default for that kind of file types.


Actually it is incomplete - you need to also (or maybe only) edit the setting in ~/.local/share/applications/freemind.desktop

Having done that, I have been able to both find the application and make it the default.

Thanks for the persistance.  We got there in the end
