3.1.3 Choosing an editor

JP1/Script provides a dedicated editor (Editor) for creating scripts. This editor is set as the default. However, you can use a different editor to create a script if you wish.

To set a different editor:

1. From the Tools menu, choose Link Editor.

   The Link Editor dialog box appears.

   

   For details about using this dialog box, see 4.1.21 Link Editor dialog box.

2. To use an editor other than Editor, select the Use another text editor check box, click the Select button, and then select the editor you want to associate. If necessary, specify a working folder for the editor too.

   The following example links Notepad as the editor for script creation.

   

   To cancel the specified editor and go back to using Editor, clear the Use another text editor check box.

3. Click the OK button.

   The editor is now linked.

Notes

• You cannot use the standard Windows WordPad. Set another type of program that supports saving in text format.

• If you do not specify a working folder at step 2, the editor's folder is assumed.

• If you click Cancel at step 3, editor linkage is canceled.
