Konqueror

Quick edits of jpg files from within Konqueror (jhead, jpegtran)

I wanted to have a quick way to rotate the images I take with my digital camera. The Olympus Camedia C-4000 always writes "1" als orientation into the EXIF data (either it doesn't have an orientaiton sensor or it is broken), therefore I cannot rotate the images automatically by the command

jhead -autorot *.jpg

So I created a desktop file ~/bin/rotate90clockwise.desktpop with the following content

Couldn't find MIME type application/octet-stream (Konquerer/Kdesktop)

This is copied from http://users.pandora.be/Ice9/Linux stuff/Linux_tips.html. I have used the second method as the desktop file appeared to be disfunctional judging from its content and had been created during the time when the error appeared first (that was when I was playing with the File associations section of the control center). KDE returns "Couldn't find MIME type application/octet-stream" at startup and/or Konqueror returns the same error message when launching whatever application.
