If I '''R'''MB click on the '''F3 - Show Pics''' button (yes you can easily set up function keys too), I will see, '''Edit Pics''' (the RMB buttons are all in different colours than the top LMB accessed buttons). If I have an image file highlighted in Worker, then Pinta (my choice, you can use whatever image editor you wanted to) will open up with the highlighted file ready for me to edit.

This can be done for any type of file on your system that you have a program that you want to use to edit/view it. The file type list included in the Worker Configuration GUI is huge, plus you can add custom file types quite easily.
This can be done for any type of file on your system that you have a program that you want to use to edit/view it. The '''File Type''' list included in the Worker Configuration GUI (the list is part shown in an the preceding images) is huge, very highly configurable (something like fourteen different custom user options can be set up) plus you can add custom file types quite easily.


For example, I use Evince for .pdf files, Firefox for .html files, Leafpad for .txt & unknown files, I have sudo Leafpad buttons for both creating '''New''' files & of course to work on existing files. So I can select a config file in say the /etc & then use the Worker '''sudo Leafpad''' button on it, which will cause Worker to throw up a terminal window where I have to input my sudo password, then the config file from /etc will be showing in Leafpad & available for me to edit & then save the changes.
