OVERVIEW
|
|
|
|
icopen patches MacOS Python to use the Internet Config file mappings to select
|
|
the type and creator for a file.
|
|
|
|
Version 1 released to the public domain 3 November 1999
|
|
by Oliver Steele (steele@cs.brandeis.edu).
|
|
|
|
DETAILS
|
|
|
|
This patch causes files created by Python's open(filename, 'w') command (and
|
|
by functions and scripts that call it) to set the type and creator of the file
|
|
to the type and creator associated with filename's extension (the
|
|
portion of the filename after the last period), according to Internet Config.
|
|
Thus, a script that creates a file foo.html will create one that opens in whatever
|
|
browser you've set to handle *.html files, and so on.
|
|
|
|
Python IDE uses its own algorithm to select the type and creator for saved
|
|
editor windows, so this patch won't effect their types.
|
|
|
|
As of System 8.6 at least, Internet Config is built into the system, and the
|
|
file mappings are accessed from the Advanced pane of the Internet control
|
|
panel. User Mode (in the Edit menu) needs to be set to Advanced in order to
|
|
access this pane.
|
|
|
|
INSTALLATION
|
|
|
|
Put this file in your Python path, and create a file named {Python}:sitecustomize.py
|
|
that contains:
|
|
import icopen
|
|
|
|
(If {Python}:sitecustomizer.py already exists, just add the 'import' line to it.)
|
|
|
|
The next time you launch PythonInterpreter or Python IDE, the patch will take
|
|
effect.
