On Windows I find an essential modification is to create a new shortcut
in the Send To folder that points to notepad.exe (or your editor of
choice), because then on any file on the machine you can right-click in
Explorer, go Send To ->  Notepad, and it'll open.



Very useful. Here's how to do it - at least on XP:

*Click Start > Run
* Type Shell:Sendto (this will open the C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\SendTo folder)
* Delete any 'SendTo' shortcuts you don't want.
* Rightclick, click New, and Shortcut
* Browse to the location of the editor
* Click Next, type a name for the shortcut, and click Finish.

12 years on, and I'm still finding new things about XP.

(Drifting off topic, but I think it's worth noting.)
