Applescript as Open With application

Hi Applescript users.

I use the following applescript to open .PS files in GV + X11

(I find this more convenient sometimes than MacGhostview)

on open filelist
repeat with i in filelist
do shell script "csh -c /sw/bin/gv\\ " & quoted form of POSIX path of i
end repeat
end open


If I save this as an Application I can drop .ps files on to it, or open them with it.

However it never appears on the "Open With" context ctl-click menu - even if
I make all .PS files open with my applescript.

Is there some magic to make this work ? i.e. 'register' the Applescript in some way

- thanks

Karl Glazebrook
