SLopen 1.0
SLopen 1.0 brings users with help to automate the changing of the preferred application for documents to open with to that of their creating application so that double clicking the document on Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard causes the creating application to open the document and not the system default application for the documents file type. more>>
SLopen 1.0 brings users with help to automate the changing of the preferred application for documents to open with to that of their creating application so that double clicking the document on Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard causes the creating application to open the document and not the system default application for the document's file type.
The problem:
Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard no longer respects the creator code of document files. When double clicked, such files now open using the default application for the file's type and not the creating application. In other words, the "when I double click a document in Snow Leopard, I want it to open under not " problem. For example, you want your Photoshop-created PNG files opened by Photoshop, not by Preview.
Solution:
Change the "Opens with" setting for all document files to that of the creating application. You can do this by hand but if you have a lot of documents, this can get tedious. This program can automate the process for you. Note that this is really a work-around and not a true solution to the problem but for most people, this work-around will probably be sufficient.
This problem can only be properly solved by storing the preferred application's bundle identifier as metadata with the document. Until that solution is implemented by Apple, changing the "Opens with" setting is the best known work-around for the problem.
Requirements:
- Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.

Open via Map 1.1

Open via Map 1.1 offers you a chance to tell the Finder in System 8.0 and later to ignore the creator type of a document when it is opened. Instead, it uses the document's file extension (as set in the Internet control panel) to control which application is used to open the document.So, for example, if you had a file mapping in the Internet control panel for ".jpg" files which was set to PictureViewer, all files with a ".jpg" extension opened by the Finder, regardless of their real creator type, will be opened by PictureViewer.
Requirements:
- System 8.0 or higher
Link Me!/Open Me! 1.0
Link Me!/Open Me! - Place a link button to QuarkXPress document more>>
It will also place a text box containing the name of the "link to" file next to the picture box.
Select both boxes (group them if you like) and move them to the pasteboard or wherever you desire. The text box containing the "link to" doc name is created for your convienince and may be deleted if you want since the picture box contains the link!
To open "link to" documents, select the link icon boxes representing the files to open (dont worry if theyre grouped since the script will find "see" them anyway), and run the "Open Me!" script--it will open all "link to" documents. If a "link to" document has been moved to another location, the script will offer to find every matching file and open them. The "Open Me!" script requires the scriptable Finder that ships with system 7.5 or higher.
