I think it's one of the "features" of the "new and improved" OS X Finder.
:-)
I suppose you could toss in a:
tell application "Finder"
set creator type of fileAlias to "CARO"
end tell
I'm finding OS X weird about saving files. I save a PDF from Acrobat into a
new filename and it doesn't seem to have a Mac OS file type and creator
because if I go to open that file on a pre-OS X Mac, the file has a generic
icon. Maybe I'm mistaken and OS X just looks at the file extension, but I
thought it still used file type and creator type for backward compatibility
or whatever.
