You might want to try right mouse clicking on the file, and select Open
With. That will give you a list of possible editors, the one that is
selected is the one that it will open with. If you need the file to
open with a different editor, you can select the editor from that list.
The next time you open that particular file, it'll open with your
last selection.
Mark's suggestion on the File Association is also good, as you can
select to make a particular editor the default editor based on the
extension.

Well, if the editor has it's own Icon, then that should give you a
visual clue, but not a verbal clue.
