I guess this is on Linux? Freedesktop.org has two standards for this: a way of registering new file types, so that the system can put a name to the files your app makes, and a way of registering new applications so that they appear in a menu and have an associated set of file types. You need to write two small files which desicribe your file type and your application, then run two scripts: update-mime-database update-desktop-database Check the docs for details. This should work for Gnome and KDE and maybe some others. Different magic is required for Windows and for OS X.
