Re: now it really gets weird



Packages -are- just a number of files in a hierarchy of directories. There is, AFAIK, no universally accepted way of transfering a directory structure of files over email.

The solution is simple - stuff it using DropStuff or create a compressed disk image.

On a side note, I never took the risk of sending classic mac programs by email either, without stuffing them, because of differences in how attachments with resource forks were handled by sender, receiver and intermediate mail servers.

I posted awhile ago, about not being able to e-mail apps, but this is gettng

It turns out that only Apple's Mail client will allow me to select apps as
attachments, but has anyone ever done that? When you then become the
recipient, the apps are broken down into many separate files!

At first I thought it was something in the cocoa development process, but
then I attached the Chess and Clock apps and sent them to myself. Even
those apps are fragmented into many files.

What's going on here? I can't be developing with cocoa, if I can't e-mail
the finished apps.
