Is it possible to edit html files in firefox with notepad?
Is it possible to edit html files in firefox with notepad? was asked 8 years ago, but the solutions no longer work. The internal Scratchpad facility seems to have disappeared, I cannot see how to edit the code using Developer Tools, and Windows 11 no longer offers Notepad as an "Open with" app.

You can possibly set an external application like Notepad as the program for "View Page Source".
You can find these prefs on the about:config page to set what external viewer/editor to use.
- view_source.editor.args
- view_source.editor.external
- view_source.editor.path

Thank you; that worked, with ARGS blank, EXTERNAL set to true, and the PATH discovered by creating a shortcut to the program. The icing on the cake would be to have an argument that tells Notepad what directory the file lives in, so that "save as" a new file would go in the rght place; can that be done?
