Name associated with cse120.exe

[jgcordes]

I apologize in advance for a pretty trivial question.
I frequently use the right-click context menu in Windows Explorer (except I actually use DOpus) to do an "Open With" on my .htm or .html files. This used to offer the option of opening with CSE HTML Validator, but
for some unknown reason, I think when going from CSE v11 to v12, CSE no longer appears in the list of programs for Open With. I had to resort to Send To cse120.exe -- this works ok but I don't like it as well.

I have just used the File Types... settings to add to the Open With list of programs, and found I could add CSE. However, the name of the program which comes up, even though I chose cse120.exe from my install directory, is CSE HTML Validator Command Line Processor. I'm not afraid of commandlines but I was surprised at this. When I use it things are fine -- the Validator GUI comes up with the chosen file open.

I am confused by the appearance of the name "Command Line Processor" being included when I go through the steps described above. Am I missing something very obvious here?

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

It shouldn't be a problem. The command line processor handles various requests more efficiently.

You may want to go to 'Options->Editor Options' and the 'Files->File Associations' page and add the file associations to the registry.

Thanks Albert. I have added the HTML File Associations in the Editor Options. My Open With context menu still just shows the CSE Command Line Processor (of course there are other programs showing, like various web browsers, Notepad++ and a couple other programs.
I think I was really wondering: is it really the CSE Command Line Processor which runs when I choose that item in the context menu? I would have expected to need a command window to be using the Command line processor. Instead the regular full GUI CSE opens.

Hello John,

Yes, it is. The "command line processor" (a small EXE) will send the command to the CSE GUI if it's already running, else it starts the GUI and then sends the command after it's started.

Ok, got it. Thanks for the speedy responses!
