Hi,

first of all I would like to recommend an update of eric4 because your version is very old.
Sigh, yes. Unfortunately that would mean breaking out of the platform-maintained package and having to maintain the entire compile-chain myself. I won't even mention that at work on Debian-Etch I have to use Eric 3.x :) . Gentoo (at home) at least gets me onto Eric 4.2.0 :) .
Your problem is caused by a wrong mimetypes configuration of your computer. It doesn't return "text/javascript" or something similiar.
Apparently on Kubuntu Hardy the configuration is for application/x-javascript . I configured it to be text/javascript with the result that I can now tell the shell (via Konquerer) to use Eric as the editor, but it opens in a separate Eric instance, not the one in which I'm browsing the project.
However, you can define files with the extension *.js to be sources and they'll be opened in the editor.
That was the key. The projectfromworking.py script I use to generate project files from bzr/git/svn/cvs working directories wasn't specifying the sourceExtensions for javascript, java or C++. Sorry for the noise, everyone.

Take care,
Mike
