How to get entry in "Open with"
#2
Have you rebooted or update the mime cache?

Here's an excerpt from here

Refreshing the MIME Database

Understanding how to refresh the MIME database is important for administrators who wish to add new MIME types to the system, or otherwise modify information about a MIME type. The application update-mime-database is intended for this purpose.
For example, if an application installs information about a new MIME type to /usr/share/mime/packages/diff.xml, then update-mime-database must be called with the parameter /usr/share/mime.
# update-mime-database /usr/share/mime
***
* Updating MIME database in /usr/share/mime...
***

The MIME database is refreshed by scanning all the source XML files in the directory <MIME>/packages.
