What follows is the code I have, which works reasonably well.

One question: how do i get a pulldown to suggest a filetype? The types are enforced, but invisibly, and it would be keen if the user got a filetype pulldown like that provided for types defined in the info.plist. One less thing for them to think about. (NB - pointers to places to look are fine.)

The current, pretty much working, code:

- (IBAction)import:(id)sender{
sender = sender;
NSArray *fileTypes = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: @"sec", @"sectab", nil];
NSOpenPanel *panel = [NSOpenPanel openPanel];
[panel setAllowsMultipleSelection:NO];
[panel setCanChooseFiles:YES];
[panel setCanChooseDirectories:NO];
int result = [panel runModalForTypes:fileTypes];
if (result == NSOKButton) {
NSArray *urlsToOpen = [panel URLs];
int count = [urlsToOpen count];
for (int i=0; i<count; i++) {
NSURL * url = [urlsToOpen objectAtIndex:i];
NSError *error = nil;
NSString * data = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:url encoding:NSMacOSRomanStringEncoding error:&error];
if (data==nil){
NSLog(@"Error reading file at %@: %@", [url path], error);
} else {
[self setFromString:data];
[self refreshEverything];
}
}
}
}


- (IBAction)export:(id)sender{
sender = sender;
// Is there a way to get the file type goodness in a save panel?
NSSavePanel * sp = [NSSavePanel savePanel];
[sp setAllowedFileTypes:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"sec",@"sectab",nil]];
int runResult = [sp runModal];
if (runResult == NSOKButton) {
NSURL * url = [sp URL];
NSString * path = [url path];
BOOL tabDelimited = [[path pathExtension] isEqualToString:@"sectab"];
NSString * data = [self dataAsStringTabDelimited:tabDelimited];
NSError *error = nil;
BOOL writeResult = [data writeToURL:url atomically:YES encoding:NSMacOSRomanStringEncoding error:&error];
if (writeResult == NO){
NSLog(@"Failed to write file at %@, error %@", path, error);
}
}
}
