Avoid the hassle of navigating sub-menus to setup your default browser or image viewer, and the pain of doing that *every time* you get a new machine. Setup the rules once, and bask in your own ingenuity forevermore. Take back control, and bind your openers to whatever. You. Want. Override everything! Who\u0027s going to stop you?\n\n---\n\n## Summary\n\n- List which apps open for a given file extension or URL scheme (Like when you double click a file in Finder)\n- Set a default application for a file extension or URL scheme  \n- Load associations from a TOML config (`[extensions]` `[types]` and `[schemes]` tables)  \n- Verbose, scriptable, and ideal for power users and admins  \n\n## Get Started\n\nGet started by installing Infat \u2014 jump to the [Install](#install) section below.\n\n## Tutorial\n\n### 1. Getting association information\n\n```shell\n# Show the default app for .txt files and all registered apps\ninfat info --ext txt\n```\n\n### 2. Setting a Default Application\n\u003e [!TIP]\n\u003e These aren\u0027t strict extensions, for example, yml and yaml extensions share a common resolver.\n\n```shell\n# Use TextEdit for .md files\ninfat set TextEdit --ext md\n\n# Use VSCode for .json files\ninfat set VSCode --ext json\n```\n\n### 3. Binding a URL Scheme\n\n```shell\n# Use Mail.app for mailto: links\ninfat set Mail --scheme mailto\n```\n\n### 4. Fallback types\n\n\u003e [!TIP]\n\u003e Openers are cascading in macOS.
