Not all executable files are Mach-O or CFM. It could be a shell script, or a fat Mach-O file (which is 0xcafebabe, IIRC).

The documentation is correct, so is the implementation. The **underlying operating system** does NOT execute CFM files. They're treated more like documents that are handled by LaunchCFMApp. If there is a function to see if the given path is an "application", it would be in LaunchServices.

OK, so the NSFileManager isExecutableFileAtPath: is really just a wrapper around lstat and check for "x" flags...
