If you want to create a new extension because your project uses a different extension from those accepted by the
HEW. For example, a phase might by default use the extension .asm but the HEW only recognizes .src. Then
you need to create a new extension and add it to an existing file group. This process is described below.
To create a new file extension in an existing file group:
1. Select [Project->File Extensions...] from the menu bar. The “File Extensions” dialog will be displayed
(figure 2.7).
2. Click the “Add…” button. The “Add File Extension” dialog will be displayed (figure 2.10).
3. Enter the extension, which you want to define into the “File extension” field. It is not necessary to type
the period ( . ) character. The drop list contains all extensions that are undefined in the current project.
Selecting one of these extensions will add the text to the file extension field automatically.
4. Select the “Extension belongs to an existing group” option and select which group you would like to add
this new extension.
5. Click “OK” to add the extension to the “File Extensions” list.

In addition to opening a file with the editor, the “File Extensions” dialog allows you to associate any application
with any file group so that when you double click on a file in the “Projects” tab of the “Workspace” then the
appropriate application is launched with the file. Figure 2.11 shows the association between a word processor
and the extension .DOC.
