I am reading a .txt file in Vim 7.4, on Windows 7.
When I F-6 on a .txt or .text file URI in Vim, the file opens in NotePad.

file:///C:/Users/wolf/Documents/a.txt
file:///C:/Users/wolf/Documents/b.text

When I click on a.txt or b.text from Explorer, the file opens in Vim. The irony :)
From Explorer > Properties > Opens with: Vi Improved - A Text Editor.

Is there a way to make vim-shell open .txt files in Vim?

vim-shell opens these file types as expected:
.doc
.odt
.cvs
.bmp

vim-shell is unresponsive when I F-6 on these file types:
.markdown (Explorer opens it in Vim)

vim-shell opens these file types in NotePad:
.txt (Explorer opens it in Vim)
.text (Explorer opens it in Vim)
