It is certainly in the Launch Services, as we just create the Open With... menu from the list we get from Launch Services. I don't know what Finder does. I guess it does some extra filtering of the returned app. It does show less apps for me. It's stupid LS does not do this. I'm not sure how this should be fixed. Perhaps we should have to filter out duplicates. Christiaan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
