Edit_Run is a simple Windows utility that provides an option of
editing or running a DOS batch file when it is selected by double
clicking in Windows File Manager.
To use Edit_Run, simply copy Edit_Run.Exe into your Windows
subdirectory or any subdirectory in the DOS Path variable. Make
the following changes to Win.ini. Then exit and re-enter Windows
for the changes to take effect..
1) Change the "programs= com exe bat pif" line to remove "bat"
2) Add the following line to the [Extensions] section
bat=Edit_Run.exe ^.bat
3) If you prefer your own editor to Window's Notepad, you
can optionally add the following two lines at the end of
Win.ini.
[Edit_Run]
Edit=MyEditor
Replace the word MyEditor, with the command line for the
editor of your choice. I have included Ed_it!.Com, which you
can use if you like. You could also use DOS' Edit.Exe.
The Next time you double click on a .bat file in file manager, you
will get a dialog box asking if you want to edit or run the file.
You can also cancel the request.
Edit_Run and Ed_it! are declared public domain by me, the author.
I retain copyright to the source code for these programs.
