Just noticed that double-clicking a *.c file opens SimpleIDE, but not th e file (I see the last file I worked on instead). Not a big prob', just thought I'd let you know.

    SimpleIDE is designed to open projects at start up. I'll mention this in the user guide. Thanks.

    If SIDE won't open a C file by association, then the association should be removed. Does the installer create an association, or did the OP?

    SIDE does not create any associations. I'm thinking it should for .side files, but haven't had time to think about implementing it. Suggestion?

    Thanks.

    If someone want associate side-files with SimpleIDE he can right-click on this file. Choose open with and select open always with this program. I think it is better to make as less settings in the OS as possible.

    So, I created the association manually for *.side too, but get the same result - just opens SIDE with most recent code showing.

    It's normal behaviour for an application, with an association, to open the file double-clicked. Are you saying that this isn't going to happen with SIDE? (Would be nice if you could make that happen, but not the most important requirement right now).

    Hi Simonl,

    I see what you mean. Will think about it.
    Meanwhile, I've opened an issue to track it. http://code.google.com/p/propside/issues/detail?id=45

    Thanks,
