Hiya,
There's no real ability for the HD to have folders, they are just an
OS construct. Folders are files which point to where the files
'inside' the folder are.
In a Mac app, the .app extension (if set to visible) just tells the
OS that 'in there' lies an executable.
Cheers,
Luis.

On the mac, you at least have to know how to open up a package and
most users don't or don't care.
That's a big difference to me and I would think to the users, and
not the same thing. And when you double click a Win folder, you see
the contents, not start the app. Wouldn't an uninformed user have
the possibility to move the startup exe separately from the folder?

I didn't know that. I always thought a Windoze app usually
consisted of a bunch of little files. I guess a multi stack
project still is with Rev.
We call it a file. It is a file. But the file is broken up into
segments (header etc). Works exactly the same as a "bundle".
It's just that we think of it as a file because that's how it's
presented to us in the OS. The same can be said for folders
(directories). They are no more "real" than files. ;-)
