ok, so far so good. i could get the mp3's to associate ok but cant seem
to make it play in wmmp3 (mpg123). dono what/which variable to put after
mpg123 in the program box. i had "mpg123 {F}" but nothing if i
double-click. hmm... either there isnt much info on how to integrate
mpg123 with worker or i missed something somewhere.

got the TXT and HTML files working now. what i did was i used the
filecontent thing and that seemed to trigger everything that doesnt have
any header (tags) in files that resemble text. (ie., personal seetings
file, .cshrc, .profile, etc..)

thanx for the input. now to get the mp3 working...
