X11 MP3 player

Hi,

I've got two questions actually.

1. I've installed an MP3 player on my redhat 9.
how, do I default all mp3 files to be played with this
program?

2. How do I create an icon for this player on the menu
bar?

Thanks,
ANdrew

Follow this

RIGHT CLICK ON AN MP3 > OPEN WITH > OTHER APPLICATION > GO THERE > DEFAULT ACTION > CUSTOM > PROGRAM TO RUN: TYPE THE PROGRAM YOU WANT TO PLAY THE MP3. EX: XMMS

I WILL BE

BUT LET ME KNOW IF IT WORKED

To create an icon, I assume you mean a shortcut, under linux they are called launchers, just do this:
RIGTH CLICK ON THE PANNEL > ADD TO PANEL > LAUNCHER > COMPLETE WHAT THE WINDOW ASKS FOR AND WHERE IT SAYS COMMAND TYPE THE NAME OF THE APPLICATION
