In my ipy_user_conf.py I have put this line:

Yeah, I tried that (except for the raw string).

ipy_editors.install_editor("C:\\Program\ Files\\TextPad 5\\TextPad.exe")

OR maybe

ipy_editors.install_editor(r"C:\Program Files\TextPad 5\TextPad.exe")

I finally got some help from one of the main IPython guys (just now). The line that partially works is ipy_editors.install_editor('"C:\Program Files\TextPad 5\TextPad.exe" ${file}(${line})')

But using the line number doesn't work, so I skip it and do

In [3]: ed versions.py
Editing... > "C:\Program Files\TextPad 5\TextPad.exe" versions.py(0)

This DOES open versions.py in Textpad, with the caret at line 1.

Thanks for your educated guesses, Alan.
