23 May 2018 Train Emacs to open files externally

TIL about the openwith package. It enables Emacs to defer to external programs for certain files. You choose which ones. Neat.

(use-package openwith :ensure t
  :config
  (csetq openwith-associations
         '(("\\.\\(mp4\\|mp3\\|webm\\|avi\\|flv\\|mov\\)$" "open" (file))))
  (openwith-mode 1))
