1. RE: EXW handling
Pete,
You can associate different actions for any given file type. For
example, in Windows XP, you would do the following:
Open an Explorer Window and select Tools/Folder Options/File Types, find
and select your EXW extension and click the Advanced button. I
typically add an "Edit" action and associate it with my favorite editor.
I set my "Open" action as the default so that double-clicking will run
the program but if I right click the file I can select "Edit" to have it
come up in my file editor.
The procedure for doing this in Win9x is slightly different and I don't
have a 9x system handy to outline the steps involved but it can be
done...
If you have a 9x system and can't figure it out, let me know and I'll
give you the procedure when I get home this evening.

Pete, and anyone else interested,
I made this registry file for my custom installer for eu, because I was tired
of doing it manually. It adds associations for *.EX,*.EXW,*.E, and *.EW files. I
know it works for win9x.
This will add 'Open'(DEFAULT, run the source), and 'Edit'(I use jfe), to the
context menu for EX, and EXW's.
For E and EW files, only the 'Edit' command is added.
If you have the reg'd version of EU, this will also use the icon file for EX
files. EXW has it's own icon, and the lib files use a windows system icon.
You should be able to modify it quite easlily to point to the appropriate
paths for the Euphoria, and your preferred editor.
Just doubleclick the file to merge it to the registry.
What I would like to know how to do, is to to add euphoria files to my 'New'
context menu.
I know someone made a registry file, along with custom EU icons, that did this.
But I don't know where it is.
