Use Different Editor

[Kevin Goodspeed]

I don't understand what your telling me to do.  I read the help file
on edit and it didn't really tell me anything.  I found the edit.m
file, but I don't understand the changes you suggest I make.

BTW, I'm using Windows XP and if I can, I'd like to change the editor
to Notepad++.exe.
C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++
