Sometimes it would be senseful that textfiles (which are pointed by a link on a webpage, for example) are not shown by the browser, but with a normal text-editor. To reach this, I added in "Edit/Preferences/NAvigator/Helper Applications": mime type text/plain extension .txt Application ...\notepad.exe but the borowser ignores that, continues openinglinks to textfiles in the Browser and does not start "notepad" tested in 0.9.7, 0.9.8, 0.9.8+2002030208
