The Resources page of the Project browser gives you a view of a project's project_resources directory (on the file system). If you set up an association between a file type and an executable, you can open files with that file type from the Resources page; that is, you can open a file the sits outside the IDE (in the project_resources directory) from within the IDE.
On Windows platforms, the
Resources page will also use your system file association settings for opening files.
Settings on this page override system settings.
