OK, point taken, exu added.

Edita could do with something a bit like that, though I'd favour setting up the
"interpret with" part once, then allow a list of extensions and an "active?"
checkbox. I assume you have to dive into Options/Custom Interpreter to switch
between perl and python, and/or you get a rack of errors when you forget?

BTW, I thought that was broken. I kept entering a command string and clicking on
OK/Apply and nothing happened or was saved. It seems to be expecting a return,
which is very un-windows-y. I now see it also works if you click on any other
command line input fields (before?) clicking OK/Apply.
I also suffered from:
C:\P2\wx\wxEuphoria\demo\wxIDE.exw:1727 in procedure get_files() 
subscript value 1 is out of bounds, reading from a sequence of length 0 
    files = {
	      "C:\\P2\\wx\\wxEuphoria\\demo\\bench_draw.exw",
	      {},
	      "C:\\P2\\wx\\wxEuphoria\\license\\gpl.txt"
	    }
which I avoided with an "and length(files[i])"... ??
