I have a suspicion that the bundle bit doesn't help if the bundle doesn't have an extension too

I'm still curious...does anyone know what (if any) the other extensions are other then .app, .bundle, .plugin, .kext and .mdimporter?

My copy of GraphicConverter doesn't have any extension at all (no, the .app is not just hidden, it's not there at all), and yet is recognised as a package (which it indeed is).

Yes, there are two other methods by which the OS will recognized a folder as a package - which one or ones GraphicConverter is using I do not know.


The extension is a third and the documentation on what extensions are recognized as packages is not complete (it does not mention .mdimporter, for example).
