In a nutshell, my program should be able to open any text file. The
application will ship with a bunch of language files which will contain
default file extensions and such (need them for something else anyway),
and the users can change these files or add more, but I don't want the
user to have to define a file extension before they can use the
program.
For example, I just created a file "Untitled.bob" and SubEthaEdit can
open it wonderfully. In fact, it can open ANY file, just like BBEdit.
How do you do that? I would have figured that the old "????" would have
worked or even an empty string, but neither did.
Another related question is, if I want to add a view to the open and
save dialogs for my documents, what method do I implement? Surely I
don't need to completely override the opening and saving of documents,
do I?
