Pax et bonum! (peace & goodness)

Assuming you're using Windows XP, you just right click on the file name,
and hit "open with..." Then you choose the program you want to use.
There is a check box if you want to use that program every time you open
that type of file extension. Hope that helps!

Ciao!

Does anyone know how the user can specify a media player as the default
to open audio file links on the web?
Several students have asked me how they can configure settings on their
home computers so that (where possible) audio links will open
automatically with Audacity, or alternately a pop-up window will ask
them to select a program.
Currently, their browser always automatically opens audio file links
with a plugin. Most use Firefox on both PCs and Macs and would like to
be able to take advantage of features that the plugins don't offer
(slowing the speed, selecting a phrase at a time, etc.).
Thank you for any help.
