XP not registered as handler for .CLS files

I installed Dolphin XP on my system (NT sp 6a), where Dolphin 4 was
already installed.  After the installation I found that Dolphin 4 was
still listed as being the handler for the .CLS file type.  I would
expect Dolphin XP to take over as the handler for .CLS and other
Dolphin-related file types, as I think it's reasonable to assume that
after some relatively short migration period Dolphin 4 will be
removed.

We've removed the associations for the CLS, PAC, ST and PAX extensions in
D5. The only extension registered is for IMG.

... and this conflicts with the Cincom association with .img files. I've
changed my systems(s) to associate with Dolphin as I am using it for "shrink
wrap" development. I'll do my Cincom stuff under Linux. I don't think
Windows supports multiple associations, at least ME and 98 versions - too
bad. Some graphics programs will also create an association with files of
the .img persuasion so be vigilant.

Cincom's VisualWorks is using the .im extension and not .img unless you
decide to name your image that way.

I'm new to VW, don't use it much and didn't pick up on this. I guess I must
have changed it at some point.

I think there is still a potential conflict with graphics files with an
".img" expression. Not a criticism - just a "heads up".

This is correct for VW however ObjectStudio image file extensions are by
default ".img".

To quote from the documentation:

"ObjectStudio consists of an executable (ostudio.exe) and an image file
(ostudio.img) ... You also can created a shortcut on the Windows 95
Desktop".

and

"The following default command executes when you start ObjectStudio:
ostudio.exe -iostudio.img.

 .... which happens for example, if you install paintshop pro
after Dolphin: .img files are conquered (as some nowadays obscure
graphics file format) and it is actually quite difficult to
develop Smalltalk code using psp :-9

but such is life under windoze ...
