How do I change the default editor for new file types in the Workbench?

0

Go to Window / Preferences / General / Editors / File Associations. If the content type is already listed, just add a new editor and pick the LanguageWare Text Editor. You can set this to be the default, or alternatively leave it as an option that you can choose, on right click, whenever you open a file of that type. You will need to restart the Workbench before this comes into effect. Note: Eclipse remembers the last viewer you used for a file type so if you opened a document with a different editor beforehand you may need to right-click on the file and explicitly choose the LanguageWare Text Editor the first time on restart.
