Using WinXP SP3

I have been using an external editor program (Arachnophilia5.3) for  
several years to 'view
source' _BUT_ in 9.51 this method has stoppped working. Arachnophilia is  
launched, but opens a blank page. It is not being passed the link to the  
file to open e.g. some file such as opr0PX59.htm from Opera's cache.

Searching around in opera6.ini and playing about with various settings  
suggests that I now have to put something in the parameter field. I have  
tried using %s (in imitation of the default setting for Notepad) but this  
doesn't work.

Any ideas please?
