Hi Neil,

Thanks but that didn't work. I noticed I had / instead of \ but changing
that didn't work either. I restarted SciTE after each change.

I am also trying to use dofile, just to see if I can get it to work, but it
is saying:
'dofile' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable
program or batch file.

This is how I am using it in the properties file:

command.go.*.lua=dofile $(FilePath)
command.go.subsystem.lua=3


I should point out that I am using Sc1 version 5.60 with my own global
properties file. Is there anything else? Is there another setting I need?

Jim
