Thought I'd make this clearer, it was later when I posted the last one...

I have a mime type: 'application/x-dev-auto-launch' with a creator type of 'play' and a creator code of 'wZsC' I'm attempting to get Internet Explorer to open my application whenever a file of this type is downloaded. I know the file comes across as plain text, but even despite mapping it to my application, TextEdit/Internet Explorer seems to override it despite the mapping. Anyone got a pointer to what I should be setting up in my info.plist? My application responds to any file, but Internet Explorer refuses to admit that it responds to this type of file and as such opens it with the default TextEdit.

Have you set up the server the file is coming from to return the proper MIME type? If not, it will default to text/plain.

To configure MIME types in Apple's built-in copy of Apache, edit /private/etc/httpd/mime.types - don't forget to restart Apache to make the changes take effect.

If you listen to a UNIX shell, can you hear the C?
