Well in the case of 'Makefile' it opens with 'TextEdit'
by default. Sometimes I want to open other things like script files.
When I double click a script file in finder, it will execute the
script. Like the file 'configure' executes when I double click on
it. So I want to have Xcode Editor ('xed') be easy to access from
my Open With list, because sometimes I do want the file to just execute
when I double click. The same with .htm file. Sometimes I want
to open it with Xcode Editor, and when I double click, I want to open it
with Safari to see how it's looking. Does this make sense? _______________________________________________
