gnome-open or xdg-open?

    Is it possible to open non-standard file-types using command-T? Command-T makes navigation between text files extremely efficiently, I would also like to navigate files such as pdfs. Normally in vim I would type !gnome-open document.pdf. Is it possible to do this with Comamnd-T somehow if I edit something? I would be a great feature for a new release. I use vim for latex obviously.

    There's no built-in way to do this, but it would certainly be possible to implement (either by adding configurable mappings to open files with custom commands, or by adding a configurable mapping of file-extension-to-open-method).
