You are right, I looked in there, and I must have taken it back out
when things got worse instead. I was following the instructions in the
NoModeFile at the time.

I have created a user filetype of 00c for C files, thus allowing
a sprite to be assigned to C files.
Currently, I have 00c,** added to 'Rules Include' part of the
UserPrefs.Modes.C.ModeWhen file and 00c as the C default type in the
misc page Choices from C mode.

In StrongED iconbar choices (Global Choices) if I untick 'Doubleclick on
files'   then when I do doubleclick on my C file a second StrongED
starts up. This is similar to what was happening, though I dont recall
it being related to the tickbox, it appears it /is/ needed.
