The attached patch changes %%s to %%r. This should handle file names containing quotes automatically.

Ramchandra's point of using a subprocess instead would fix the issue as well. That would require changing "print_window" in Lib/idlelib/IOBinding.py 

Terry's observation about Windows' Notepad omitting the file extension is just a behavior of Notepad.
