But I could swear I saw only a few bits inserted by QT and a (...) (17 years ago, 15-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

Can't the user just use "Get Info" to assign an application of their choice to open files of a (...) (17 years ago, 15-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

Under the "Open With:" section of the little window that appears, choose an application to open the selected file when double-clicked. Click "Change (...)

In the days of long ago, most/all browsers could be configured so that when the browser didn't know what to do with a file, a helper application, specified by the user, could jump in to open the file for you.

I have to read up a bit on the new keys to see what they do. According to these notes, things changed a (...) (17 years ago, 23-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

| | | | | (...) Well, I tried that, and all it did was make it so that LDView couldn't be chosen as the app to open LDraw files at all. Comparing to L3Lab's Info.plist, I haven't the foggiest why. The L3Lab one seems to work. However, when I carefully cleaned (...) (17 years ago, 24-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
