It is now required. I learned this trick from developer.apple.com.
Not sure why quicken does not have one. but the info.plist is
required. figured all the ins and outs of the bundle.
I am however working on it. the PkgInfo is put there by installer as
far as i know. I just know that all i have to have is the info.plist
in there with the correct info in it and it will become a full
application just like quicken.

Well, I just looked at a Quicken data file, which is a bundle
containing a number of folders and files, and there is no
Info.plist file within it. There is a PkgInfo file which contains
the 8 characters BDATINTU, the Type and Creator codes. Other than
that everything is a Quicken specific item within the Bundled
folder. So, because of this, I don't think the Info.plist file is
the key to making a bundled "Data" folder as is wanted by the
originator of this thread.
