I would like opening my js files in max to open with my preferred code editor instead of max's code editor.

Is there a way to set an external program to open from inside max? For example when I double click a [js] object

Oh, I found it... should looked just a little longer through the preferences.

In case anyone else is looking... in Max8 (not sure if this is in 7 or lower)

In the "preferences..." menu, under "Interface", there is an "External Text Editor" option, and also check "Always use External Text Editor" to make that the default.

Can I change the default code editor to an external program?
