Welcome to the dired-hacks wiki!
These are some notes from my experience using dired-open.
Installation under Emacs 26 using use-package
(use-package dired-open
:init
(require 'dired-open)
:defer 5)
After loading this then you can test
Open up a directory and move over a file, type in M-x dired-open-xdg and it should open it in your default GUI application.
M-x customize Type in 'dired-open' and search Within Dired Open Extensions click INS to insert a new one. Example Extension: png Program: gthumb
Here has to be a new line per extension
Go to customize Type in 'dired-open' and search Within Dired Open Functions click INS to insert a new one at the end Overwrite 'Ignore' to 'dired-open-xdg'
Now dired-open should open files which are not listed in your open extensions list the the default application.
