| *.H, *.DOC and *.TXT files using TEMPUS.PRG, simply install tempus.PRG as

As for me, I have added the following line to desktop.inf:
#F FF 04 c:\bin\filespy.prg@ *.*@

and, each time i click on a not-executable file, filespy is called
automatically and displays this file. Unfortunately, you can't see
another file using f6 funcion key from filespy because mouse is not activated.

So, I have installed filespy as a GEM app, suffix: *. Now, I can use f6
function key, BUT BUT... I have no more executable files!  All files are
displayed by filespy! I can't even de-install filespy.prg as it is no
more an exec file! Fortunately, i have not saved this desktop, so a
reboot has corrected this trouble.

My question is: is there a way to specify all files except PRG, APP,
TTP, TOS?
