In absence of a response I'll assume this is a downstream packaging bug.

Closing report.

>> I reported this bug.


Can you confirm that this is a downstream packaging bug?

Koorosh, can you confirm that an installed "official" version behaves as expected?

Yes, that's probably the case. I reported this bug. Thank you very much.

I have both 5.2.0 and 7.3.0 versions on my machine. 5.2.0 works alright, however 7.3.0 has following issue:

When I'm trying to open a ".m" file inside IDE, it opens external editor. Even when I specify in settings that I don't want to use an external editor.
