Dag nabbit!! I goofed!

I impatiently associated "Open Office Writer" with Greasemonkey. I can't find a way to change it thru the options menu or any other part of the GUI. Now I can't seem to find the proper location of this association to remove it.

Also what is the ideal editor to use. I was going to start with Windows Note Pad but in a haste, having forgot the location of it's EXE file, I chose the easiest one to find "OOW".

Obviously I'm a NUB so any good tutorial would be appreciated as well!

TIA

c:\Windows\System32\notepad.exe

Also, Aptana, Notepad2, Notepad++, EditPad Pro and Dreamweaver are good.

I've also wondered how you change the text editor setting after you've already selected one.

well, i don't know if it was a rhetorical question but anyway...
there is a directive named as greasemonkey.editor in about:config where you can change the text editor.

Thanks avg & w35l3y!

I have installed Notepad++ and associated GM with it.

JoeSimmons go to "about:config" in the list find "greasemonkey:editor" and select reset. Next time you try editing through GM it will prompt to select your preferred editor again as before.

Studying the regex stuff now!

Or delete the value, and you'll be asked again.

 
JoeSimmons Scriptwright
