No, rather LSGetApplicationForInfo

I guess we should use this one for opening:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Carbon/Reference/
LaunchServicesReference/Reference/reference.html#//apple_ref/c/func/
LSOpenItemsWithRole
Note that this latter one is for MacOS 10.4 and later only. For now,
it should probably be LSOpenFSRef:
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Carbon/Reference/
LaunchServicesReference/Reference/reference.html#//apple_ref/c/func/
LSOpenFSRef>
