    Re: L3P v1.3 for Mac OSX —Lars C. Hassing
   (...) Sure, if you tell me what exactly what you want... /Lars (22 years ago, 5-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
   
        Re: L3P v1.3 for Mac OSX —Christopher Masi
   (...) Well, I don't really know. As I said, James said to do this at the command line /Developer/Tools/SetFile -c "POV3" -t "TEXT" /Users/yourname/yourfile.pov and after doing that, the POV-Ray programs processed the files normally. I don't know why (...) (22 years ago, 5-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
   
        Re: L3P v1.3 for Mac OSX —Don Heyse
     (...) I wonder if this could be solved with something as simple as doing an fopen() with "wt" instead of just "w"? And... And... I just can't help myself here, sorry Lars... If the code were available you might get better, more helpful or accurate (...) (22 years ago, 5-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
    
         Re: L3P v1.3 for Mac OSX —Erik Olson
     (...) Interesting idea. Unfortunately either way fopen creates a file with no Mac type or creator code at all. Because I told the Finder once to open a .pov file with BBEdit, it knows to do that for me. But I still get a blank icon because it has no (...) (22 years ago, 5-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
    
         Re: L3P v1.3 for Mac OSX —Christopher Masi
     (...) I agree. It seems like a step backwards. (...) Ahh.... so it is a 10.2 thing. Thanks, Chris (22 years ago, 6-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
   
        Re: L3P v1.3 for Mac OSX —James Reynolds
   This is more of an issue with POV-Ray. It has everything to do with Macintosh Meta data. l3p creates files with no meta data. If you type: /Developer/Tools/GetFileInfo -c /path/to/.pov /Developer/Tools/GetFileInfo -t /path/to/.pov You get: "" Which (...) (22 years ago, 5-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
   
        Re: L3P v1.3 for Mac OSX —Christopher Masi
   (...) I suspected that POV-Ray was just being difficult, especially when simply adding (I didn't know if it was adding or changing the file type) the text file type. (...) Actually, that makes sense. But do you think that they are doing the "text (...) (22 years ago, 6-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
   
        Re: L3P v1.3 for Mac OSX —James Reynolds
   (...) I wondered that too. I would think that it wouldn't matter. If it tried to open a binary file, I don't think it would be any worse than openning a SimpleText or some other "TEXT" file. POV-Ray still has to check the file for proper POV-Ray (...) (22 years ago, 6-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
   
        Re: L3P v1.3 for Mac OSX —Christopher Masi
   (...) If, IF I get it working. I have no idea what I am doing most of the time, but sometimes get it to work anyway. With OS 9 I could create a drag-and-drop capable scriptlet/applet, but with OS X I cannot figure it out :( (...) It seems that there (...) (22 years ago, 7-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
   
        Re: L3P v1.3 for Mac OSX —James Reynolds
   (...) Don't worry, neither do I. ;-) (...) The OS 9 script should compile and work on OS X too. I haven't been paying attention to AppleScript changes for OS X since May, but back then the scripts pretty much did the same thing they did in OS 9. (...)
