Re: [Other] .nt file extension association

If it is a file association in Windows that's easy enough to fix. Right click on My Computer and select Explore. Then go to Tools/Folder options. In Folder Options pick File Types, scroll down and look for the Extension NT. Just delete it. I am not sure I understand though, the app is running in pure dos or in a command window from another version of Windows? Try take it back to Windows and removing the file association. Also try remaning to another extension that Editor recognizes like .txt or .bat.
Notepad does not add any formatting, in fact if you open a document with formatting it should remove it. I use it to strip formatting out of Word documents.

config.nt more-or-less has to be called config.nt, since it's used by the Virtual DOS Machine startup code. It is the counterpart in the VDM of config.sys in actual DOS.

(Yeah, you could call it something else, then modify every MS-DOS program shortcut, but really that's a pretty clunky way to solve the problem).

I'm surprised that the existence of an association for .nt breaks the VDM, but I guess it's possible.
