10.6: Use Automator to ease document-app assignments
I completed the assignment of creating an example of an Automator Service workflow (and an AppleScript) that let's you choose the application that will be assigned to your Finder-selected files from a list of applications that you can configure yourself. I tweeted a preliminary version of this to Rob G. yesterday, but todays version includes a fix for a problem wherein the chosen application would be launched when the list selection was made. I've also included both the Automator Service workflow and an AppleScript droplet version in the linked .zip archive:
Set Default Application for Selected Files (http://tinyurl.com/y97pcjn) To configure the choice list, you'll need to know each Application's bundle identifier. The easiest way I know to find the bundle identifier is to type the application's name into the search field of PrefSetter. Maybe that tip merit's its own hint.
