Whenever I edit the Hosts file, I have to do a right-click, Open, then
select the application to open it with. This box does not allow the
'always use the selected program...' option.

Is there any way to get the Hosts file to always open with the same
application? Since it does not have a suffix, I can't tie it to an
application.

Thanks for any help.
