vim-shell opens text files in NotePad

[wolfv6]

I am reading a .txt file in Vim 7.4, on Windows 7. When I F-6 on a .txt or .text file URI in Vim, the file opens in NotePad.

file:///C:/Users/wolf/Documents/a.txt
file:///C:/Users/wolf/Documents/b.text

When I click on a.txt or b.text from Explorer, the file opens in Vim. The irony :) From Explorer > Properties > Opens with: Vi Improved - A Text Editor.

Is there a way to make vim-shell open .txt files in Vim?

vim-shell opens these file types as expected: .doc .odt .cvs .bmp

vim-shell is unresponsive when I F-6 on these file types: .markdown (Explorer opens it in Vim)

vim-shell opens these file types in NotePad: .txt (Explorer opens it in Vim) .text (Explorer opens it in Vim)

Does it work correctly when you remove the file:/// part at the start of the filename and then press F-6?

Yes, and I get the same results without the leading "file:///".   Wolfram Volpi [email protected]
