One of the new but undocumented features of Vernon Buerg's LIST program
is its ability to invoke you favorite editor in a point and shoot
manner. Assuming you have version 7.3d which is the current version as I
write this you can customize LIST for your editor as follows:

Using DEBUG and assuming you editor is named MYEDIT.EXE and is in your
PATH. Make the directory that contains LIST.COM the current directory.
Then:
             debug
             n list.com
             l
             e 17f7 "myedit"
             w
             q
It is important that if your editor name is less than 4 characters long
you pad the name with spaces to a minumum length of 4. This is because
you are actually overwriting the default editor name of "edit". I guess
an alternative would be to rename your favorite editor to EDIT.EXE or
EDIT.COM as appropriate.

Now when you are in LIST you can invoke a directory list via the ALT-V
command. Just select the file you want to edit and move the cursor block
the the filename and press 'e'. You will instantly invoke the editor
you selected. Note: the 'e' is not listed as one the selections on the
ALT-V screen and that's why I call this feature undocumented.

Once you've tried this I am confident you will use it often.
