Hi Neil, Thanks but that's still too vague to be actionable.

Actually I do have TextPad and I get: "Cannot find key 'TextPad\shell\open\ddeexec\application' in registration database (error 2)" which, as I said in my first email, is the same error that I get when trying "winhugs /edit" from the command line. I speculated that was the command because that is the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\hugs_haskell\shell\Edit\command key but it is clear that more happens under the cover after that. Under Options, TextPad is already the selected editor, so that doesn't help me. The (grayed out) command is "C:\Programme\ Textpad 5\System\DDEOPN32.EXE TextPad %s(%d)". Trying to execute that from the Windows shell gives the same error as above. I think the mistake is to look for a TextPad entry: there isn't one. Instead there are Textpad.dde and TextPad.tws entries and I guess Textpad.dde is the correct one since it has the shell\open\ddeexec\application key. But whose mistake is it: TextPad's or WinHugs' and how does one go about fixing it? -- O.L. _______________________________________________ Hugs-Bugs mailing list Hugs-Bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/hugs-bugs
