hybrid8,
I'm aware of OSX'es break with the Mac file typing mechanisms. It makes it a little difficult, especially since I still need to use some Classic stuff. But to be honest, I liked th Mac way better.

It just doesn't seem to make sense, that I have to tell the OS and the applications what type a file is by putting that information in the name. Shouldn't the software be smart enough to figure it out by itself?
