I've been reading a lot about entity-component design but every article talks about the philosophy behind such design, leaving a lot of details and implementations outside. I'm looking for an open source game that uses the entity-component design so I can study the concrete implementations and see how they deal with things such as
How (and if) they deal with inter-component communication
How much logic each component has or doesn't have
How a subsystem can change it's behavior depending on an entity's state (the screen darkens depending on the player's health)

I'm now using Ubuntu 12.04.
In earlier versions you could associate a filetype with a specific command (e.g. self-compiled binary) by selecting "Open with" in the file's properties and select the command by providing the file path manually if it wasn't already in the list of applications.
Is this possibility gone?

When I try to open a FDF, I just get a pop up over and over again which asks me if I want to open the form.
One possible solution is downgrading to Safari 3, but that is not proven to work.
I thought maybe I could get the FDF to open in FireFox, but changing the default browser does not affect Reader, it still attempts to open the FDF in Safari (strange).
So, does anyone know of a way to open this form?
Thanks
