Hello:

I thought I would put in my 2 cents in and help out a bit on this project. :-)

After dealing with a few "rookies" that are so idiotic that don't know their way around a computer, I made up a registy keys to help out on the rookie users so all they need to do is click on the file, and MIRROR would open it up and run. The only problem I had was trying to associate a icon to the files, and it didn't work out too well. Maybe someone else can fix it up better than I can. I tried 1, 0, and then none at all to see if that would do the trick, and it didn't.

Any case, here's what I made for the registries. called it "mirror.reg" so all they have to do is import it into the Registry.

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.par]
@="MIRROR_PAR"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.p01]
@="MIRROR_PAR"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.p02]
@="MIRROR_PAR"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.p03]
@="MIRROR_PAR"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.p04]
@="MIRROR_PAR"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.p05]
@="MIRROR_PAR"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.p06]
@="MIRROR_PAR"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIRROR_PAR]
@="Parity Volume File"
"EditFlags"=hex:00,00,00,00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIRROR_PAR\shell]
@=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIRROR_PAR\shell\open]
@=""
"EditFlags"=hex:01,00,00,00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIRROR_PAR\shell\open\command]
@="C:\\PROGRA~1\\mirror.exe \" %1\""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIRROR_PAR\DefaultIcon]
@="C:\\PROGRA~1\\mirror.exe,1"
