Ideally, there should be an GUI editor that can also
'execute' the current buffer to associate the above
'double click means edit' action.

Creating a command line window shortcut(like what VC
does) with the proper path set is more than enough for
the installer. This also allows multiple installation
to live happily together.

Afterall, scripting language is still heavily command
line oriented.
