Thanks...
I see what you mean about the asterisk (*)... I hadn't noticed it
there before.
For some reason my structure is slightly different
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
|-- *
|-- (... various other things are here)
|-- shell <= ***MOVED STUFF HERE***
|-- shell
|-- Open with Emacs
|-- command
One layer deaper...
There's more under the second instance of `shell' but related to other
things.
I moved to the top shell subdir as indidcated in the diagram, and now
things are working.
Thanks again
