Spotify

I'm running spotify in wine.

To make spotify links in last.fm work, I did:

Create an 'openspotify' script: 

#!/bin/sh
exec wine "C:\Program Files\Spotify\spotify.exe" /uri "$@"

Create a 'spotify.desktop' and put it in ~/.local/share/applications: 

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Spotify
Exec=/bin/sh "/home/arnouten/bin/openspotify"
Categories=Application
Version=1.0
StartupNotify=true
Type=Application
Terminal=0

Register it as default app for spotify:-links: 

xdg-mime default spotify.desktop uri/spotify

... and patch xdg-open: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35700
