This is false. As a result, most of their conclusions are incorrect as well. If you can't set the UTI differently on two files with the same type code and extension, it can't serve as a creator code. Incidentally, this is not a complaint against UTIs; they are very useful. They're just not meant to solve the creator code problem. -BJ Homer _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
