[comp.sys.mac.programmer] superboomerang addition to the open menu

gelphman@adobe.COM (David Gelphman) (02/08/91)

   I had wondered why SuperBoomerang wouldn't add files to my open
menu in an application I wrote. I got a very nice call from the author
which solved the problem. Of course the solution makes perfect sense.
SuperBoomerang looks at the FREFs of the application and puts the
documents it knows about with those TYPEs into the open submenu it
creates. My application does not CREATE any files but it does allow
you to open specific types (which I pass to SFGetFile). Merely modifying
the BNDL and FREF resources of my app to reflect that it 'knows' about
these types solves the problem.

Thanks the those who sent me possible solutions...
