I mean that when I right-click and choose "Open With" that for zip files
Sage is in the list, for txt files it isn't. Obvious for sws files it is.
But one can still surf through the mini-Finder window and use that, or
drag a text file onto the Sage in the Dock (well, I didn't try that, and
right now I definitely can't).

worksheet? I agree. I think that requires sagenb changes, but maybe not.
Fair enough.

clue, since it usually just logs in. This happened in both FF and Chrome.

That's my point. In Safari it's fine, but go into Safari prefs and change
the default browser to FF or Chrome, and they don't auto login when you
click on a sws file. (That might even be the case without the double
click, just when opening Sage - I didn't think to check that.)

That might be the sequence. I was pretty sure that the second time I
tried this that I changed the focus by clicking on some of the radio
buttons in the prefs, but maybe the "text" focus was still there... I
could try this tonight as well.

a little. For the moment this one is updated.
Ok. Updated in the sense that "Open File" now works?
