Where is the ZopeEdit.ini file you're editing? According to the 0.8 code it should pick up the editor defined in the config file up and use it exclusively in preference to any extension- or content/type- related executables. The code first looks in: os.path.expanduser('~\\ZopeEdit.ini') (which on my system resolves to "c:\Documents and Settings\chrism \ZopeEdit.ini"), and then looks in: os.path.join(sys.path[0] or '', 'ZopeEdit.ini') (the package directory, presumably). - C On Tue, 2005-06-21 at 12:37 -0600, hpinson@indepthl.com wrote:
Hello. I am having a problem with Zope External Editor 0.8 - the helper app running on W2K. This problem occurred on upgrade from the previous version.
When I lauch the external editor, by clicking the pencil, MS Word lauches (and if I save, badly mangles the HTML.
In ZopeEdit.ini my editor setting has not changed:
# Uncomment and specify an editor value to override the editor # specified by the operating system editor = C:\Program Files\TextPad 4\TextPad.exe
I used to be able to change this path to Dreamweaver as well, but when I do that, only MS Word launches.
What could account for this? Is there a solution to get Zope External Editor working as it did prior to the upgrade?
