By default, the filetype is set to "ttxtTEXT" which causes Rev to make the Finder think that all files it saves are text files. The easiest solution is to use: set the fileType to empty before saving any files. This forces OS X to make up it's own mind about the file type, absed on the extension.
Thanks Sarah. I'll definitely use the set the fileType to empty trick. I'm trying to write something that will work cross-platform and the less that I need to special case, the better. Keeping it generic is probably the better idea, even though everyone on the Mac would use Stuffit on such a file anyway in all likelihood. The real question is why does Revolution save files with a filetype at all these days? It should only do so under OS 9 as I understand it.
