Regopen is an alternative to the xdg-open resource opener configured
with regular expressions.
Description

The regopen utility opens file/URI/whatever in a way that is specified in
configuration file. A configuration file consists of a set of patterns
in the form of regular expressions and associated actions in the form of
shell script lines.

is set.
