I am using P4Win 2004.2/73359 on Windows XP SP1.

I have set the "Files: Double Click" option to "open and edit file using associated editor."

However, it doesn't open with the associated editor but with the associated opener.

For instance, If I use the Windows explorer, Folder Options, File Types property sheet, I can see that an HTML (.html) file is defined to Open with Internet Explorer, but Edit with Frontpage. Perforce brings the file up in IE and not Frontpage. The Same is true for Python (.py) on Perl (.pl) File which are defined to Open with their interpreters but Edit with their respective IDEs. Perforce tries to run them.

Does everyone else see this behavior. Is this a bug in P4Win or a typo on the options page.
