Build F1. Instead of opening files that does not have an editor associated with the Default Text Editor, we could ask to user for an editor. Like Windows does. Opening a JAR file with a default text editor is useless.
Not sure why zip files are not opened in the Default Text Editor as well. If a open a zip or jar in the Windows File Explorer the WinZip opens. I do not have file bindings for either jar or zip. Why does it open zip as it should (external winzip) but does not do the same for jar files.
If there's a system binding for .zip, then we use the system editor, otherwise the text editor.
