However, note that Qedit does not currently support the HPFILE var.
(That was true when last I checked, anyway; I'd be VERY happy to hear
differently.)

As I stay inside Qedit all day, I end up writing code like

        setvar myfile  hpfile
        if hpfile = ""
           setvar myfile "WHEREIS.CF.SYS"
        endif

then using MYFILE instead of HPFILE.  It's a definite hassle,
but I'm sure not going to give up Qedit over it. :)
