Hi
I just copied what Hugs does, or at least I thought I did - does Hugs do ShellExecute?
No, Hugs does something thats not very clever, i.e. spawning notepad. I've never used Hugs' :edit command on Windows. WinHugs on the other hand has a clever set of rules which launches using ShellExecute if that seems sensible, finds good editors (TextPad, Vim, Emacs etc) and launches using them and then if all else fails drops down to Notepad. It would be nice if GHC had the same kind of logic, but thats quite a lot of work. You are welcome to share the logic of WinHugs, but thats written in C.
