Hi folks,
Anyone else miserable about the ungraceful decay of type/creator
codes?
I have a filetype which by default opens in app "XYZ" but I also
occasionally get files of the same type which I want to open in app
"PQR". I want to set up a folder action so that when I add these latter
mentioned files to it, their creator type gets set automatically.
In other words, I can't just tweak the system default.
In the old days I could just set the creator code, but unfortunately
app
"PQR" is a java app and its creator code is "????".
(FWIW 'XYZ' is 'BitTorrent' and 'PQR' is 'Azureus')
I see that 'info for' now includes this thing called 'default
application'
an alias to the app itself (smart!)... but I can find no way of
setting it.
Is this possible?
