Hi there,
I set the creator/type of a file likeso:
my $of = "extract.u8";
open OF, "> $of"
or die "cannot create `$of': $!";
my @creator = qw(LING McPL TBB6 MOSS);
#0 #1 #2 #3
MacPerl::SetFileInfo($creator[0], "TEXT", $of);
and after perl writes the data to OF, I'd like perl to tell the creator
app (in this case "LING") to open $of. The creator app is not apple
scriptable, though I guess this might not matter, if perl can tell the
finder to tell the app. to open the file.
Does someone here have example code?
