Note it is in the folder list, not the file list, has question marks for creator/type and a ".app" suffix on the name. I am assuming this will provide reliable identification.

I think that Barry's problem is that the Adobe applications don't have the ".app" suffix.


I think the finder checks this:

1. It checks for a bundle bit. I don't think Apple bothers with setting this for their stuff.

2. It checks for .app, .bundle or .framework.

3. It looks for a pattern in the bundle structure.

I don't know how to do #1; there might be some shell() or AppleScript() method.

I expect that #1 and #3 together will work most of the time.

I'm not sure how much of a pattern is needed. Maybe this: The next level has a single folder named Contents and it contains (among other things) file info.plist and folder Resources.
