Code Signing = Ben Da Man, You Da Man!

Hi again Camel,
That's very nice of you, but all the glory rightfully goes to Ben Rockhold.
I just flipped through the developer docs to the chapter on CodeSigning, so if thanks are due, they must be given to Apple's good documentation :-)
If Ben or Rob would like to re-post all of the good info in this hint+thread, and include the file as a demo, I think that it'd be a good idea, but i can't rightfully do it myself...
Be Well!
Peter

I don't mean to insist

I doubt anyone is still reading this, but there was one last problem with this configuration:
If Safari and SafariBeta were not running, no matter how often you told the "internet preferences" that SafariBeta was your choice, clicking a link in, say, Mail, would open it in Safari (current).
So, I just went into the version.plist file and changed the CFBundleIdentifier from com.apple.safari to com.apple.Safari_beta
also changed CFBundleName to Safari_beta
Finally, I made a duplicate of the preference file (~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.safari) and called it, you guessed it, com.apple.Safari_beta
Now Safari_beta is treated as a proper app by the MacOS 10.5 or 10.6.
I will post the new app asap
Be Well,
Peter
