906.0. "Ultrix FileView - Executing a Program" by DEMOAX::COPELAND () Thu Jun 08 1989 15:12

    In Ultrix FileView, it does not seem possible to execute a selected
    file. The documentation says that a double click should execute
    an executable file. I cannot get it to work. It also seems that the
    context sensitive pop-up does not know anything about the kind of
    file currently selected and does not vary the options based on what
    kind of file is selected. This means that there is no way to execute
    a program from FileView without adding it as an entry to a menu.
    
    Is this a bug, or am I missing something.

    Thanks.
