You got that backwards. Non-bundle-type single-file Carbon apps can't Show
Package Contents. Only bundle-type applications (Carbon and Cocoa) Show
Package Contents - that's the bundle (package). AFAIK, all Cocoa apps are of
this bundle type, only some (newer) Carbon apps are. Older Carbon apps
originally made for OS 8/9 are the ones that are generally still
single-file, if they haven't been rewritten as bundles.

I agree. It seems to be an old-fashioned single-file Carbon app. What makes
you think it's Cocoa?
