Another CDE action worthy of a mention?



After looking on pilotGear and finding several hints for short cuts for loading 
PRC files on another OS, I thought I'd share with you this shortcut for CDE.

Simply save data below into a current or new .dt file in ~/.dt/types and
reload actions / restart CDE.

It assumes pilot-xfer is in your path.

Enables you to double click on a .prc file to have it loaded onto your pilot.
