For example to generate commands that make
- zathura
- geeqie
- nvim
- mpv
- onlyoffice-desktopeditors
- vifm
- qutebrowser
- cr3
preferred applications, run
for p in cr3 qutebrowser vifm onlyoffice-desktopeditors mpv nvim geeqie zathura; do grep "$p" fl | grep -v "zathura-pdf-poppler" done
where fl is the file obtained via the above command. Note that the order of applications in the cycle is reversed.
