Hi,

Why not put the .app file into a .tar.gz or stuffit or a compressed disk image?

The problem is that an app isnt a single file, its a directory called a 'bundle'. The finder displays it like a single file, but if you use terminal to look at it, you'll find that its really a directory.

Regards,

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

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.
