Entity Paul Berkowitz spoke thus:
Strangely enough - given that Entourage is not a package or bundle,
and thus
has no CFBundleIdentifier key in any apparent location, but is just a
regular Carbon APPL file - that actually works. Thank you.
So - how is it that its creator code is not registered anywhere (but
you get
"OPIM" as the creator code of the application file in the Finder or
as file
creator in 'info for' without problem) but "com.microsoft.Entourage"
is
registered?
And I have it there as the default mailto app and default ics app. But
that
still doesn't establish its location, nor anything other than that
when I
click a mailto link or or .eml file or .ics file, it's Entourage that's
supposed to open up. And that's just a pref for my user anyway.
…
But I suspect that the info identifying apps and their file locations
are
buried somewhere in the file system itself, not in text files. It
would be
good to know.
This has come up on the list before in a different contexts. In
nonbundled OS X savvy (read: Carbon) apps, there is a properties list
in the resource fork with the key. Its text in a single item resource
named 'plis', but written in XML like a plist file.
