I personally hate this, especially if your app reads file types other apps
share with you. For instance, one of my programs opens ISO files, and one user

Hi,
I'm writing an app which has to import files without a fixed file
extension. There are about 10 different commonly used file extensions
around.
Is it possible to associate a file to my app based on the file contents?
Much like how file (1) determines a file's type?
Or should I simply regi
I got all the contents from LS database and the prp extension is associated
with TextEdit application. I got it like:

Could it be that you have another application that also claims the .prp
extension? Mac OS does not
Hi,
I noticed that the problem is only with the "prp" extension.
When I'm replacing it with another extensions it is working fine.

Then run it and saved the project.
Then I double click the saved project, but it opens in TextEdit.
