In windows their is a registry of file types, which you 
can get to under folder options

when you examine *.e you may have several actions that windows can take,
these are usually visible from the right click menu when selecting a file
typical actions are Open,Edit,Print

so when I view the open action for the *.e filetype I see the command line

"C:\EUPHORIA\BIN\ED.BAT" "%1"

%1 being the variable for the file name passed to ED.
