When xemacs installs on NT, it offers to register itself as the
default editor for c, java, ... files. However, it doesn't do a
complete job. In particular, it doesn't register for the ".cxx"
".hpp" or
".hxx" extensions.
One thing even more annoying that how many extensions c++ programmers
use is when they open up in something other than emacs :-)
Suggestions -
1. the simple:
Register for those types as well. I can't imagine those are used
for anything other than c++
2. the complete:
Put up a dialog box asking for which extensions to register
emacs. Emacs, being gods own editor, is useful for so many file
types (perl, python, html, xml, batch, ...) that power users could
well like to pick and choose from a larger menu.
3. the sinister:
Run through the registry and snarf all the file types visual studio
has registered for.
