the leoSettings is supposed to be:
@string external_editor='blahblah.exe'
but it doesn't seem to have an effect on my computer. Or it's being
overwritten by something else. (see
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.leo.general/14362,
https://leo-editor.readthedocs.org/en/latest/_modules/leo/core/leoGlobals.html#guessExternalEditor";
c and c.config.getString('external_editor'))"

however, getting back to why the np++ isn't being substituted. What your
looking for is "image file execution options", and all it takes is editing
a registry key:
