Hi,
your friend is make_services. Once your application is installed, run it. (OS-X just runs make-services periodically).
Thanks for the info! But, I'm pretty sure on OS X Finder does this, not a background service (or the app handling registration is at least initiated by Finder). Shouldn't GWorkspace and openapp run this sort of a task on launch of the app? That would certainly improve usability and make app installation easier.
You can also check with GWorkspace that the inspector "Tools" shows with what to open. Several applications can be listed with one default.
Thanks!
Furthermore I may add that ProjectCenter's 0.6.0 file format is a Bundle, organized similarly to Xcode: a project specific file inside and a user-specific plist.

Hi,
Since Zcode is trying to be compatible with Xcode, I'd like to make it the associated app for opening .xcodeproj bundles. Project Center does not seem to support specifying that a document type is a bundle, and by reading PC's Info-gnustep.plist, it doesn't seem to require it either.
I've specified the document type in .plist, and I've launched the .app at least once. On OS X, that would be sufficient to associate the filetype with the app. However, GWorkspace does not seem to open the .xcodeproj files with Zcode, nor does the file open dialog represent the .xcodeproj bundles as "files" instead of directories.
What did I do wrong with the plist? What else do I have to do to make the GNUstep workspace associate .xcodeproj with Zcode?
See the plist here:
