Setup as default viewer

Linux (Ubuntu)

The quick and dirty way I did it on my system was:

  1. Create a file under $HOME/.local/share/applications named jsonviewer.desktop with the appropriate contents pointing to where you have uncompressed your binary.
  2. Create and entry on $HOME/.local/share/applications/defaults.list that looks like:
[Default Applications]
application/json=jsonviewer.desktop

Windows

At the moment I don't have an answer on how to do it manually. Need to consult some Windows gurus.

Nonetheless, the Windows Setup binary provided will ask you if you want to make it the default viewer for JSON files.
