Tools/Register File Extensions option activated and code in place.
This utility allows the User to associate one or more of the following file extensions to the IWB3 IDE:

.iwb, .iwp, .eba, .ebp, .inc, .dlg

This results in the IDE opening ( if it is closed)or restoring (if it is already open but not the currently active window)
when a registered file is double-clicked in Windows Explorer.

There are two major differences between the current IDE and the  new IDE.

1. The new IWBasic IDE allows the user to register .eba and .ebp files and the current does not.
2. With the new IDE, double-clicking a registered file  will open the IDE and load the file if the IDE is not currently open.
   If the IDE is already open then the file will be opened in that instance of the IDE.
   With the current IDE, a new instance of the IDE is opened each time a file is double-clicked.

  Note: If an additional instance of the new IDE is absolutely necessary it can be opened by double-clicking the desktop shortcut.  It must be noted that, if multiple instances of the new IDE are open, that double-clicking a registered file will place that file in the first instance of the IDE that the window enumeration routine locates.  Also, all the instances of the IDE will share the same ini file.

 Note: Since there is no code in place for the Dialog Editor it will only register .dlg files with the current IDE.

To facilitate testing the User can use this option to switch file registrations between IWB3 and IWB2.
