NeXT BUGS:
---------
- Saving font default doesn't work (can't serialize point size error).
I was storing an NSNumber in a dictionary which got saved to defaults.
I worked around this bug by storing a string representation of the
number in the dictionary instead.
- Info panel not loading README.
I worked around this by explicitly asking for an "rtf" file then an
"rtfd" file (if the "rtf" wasn't found). NSBundle is not working as
advertised where it says that if you pass nil for the "extension",
then it will find the first file with the "name" regardless of the
"extension".
- When browsing /LocalApps, the icons are all the same (and they are the icon
for MallocDebug.app which isn't even in that directory)!
The MallocDebug.app icon shows up as the icon for *ALL* ".app"
directories rather than the icon of the executable inside. I tracked
this down to MallocDebug's Info.plist:
NSExtensions = {app = {NSIcon = Leak.tiff; NSIsPrimary = NO; }; };
I worked around this problem by explicitly checking for the "app"
extension and asking for the icon of the contained executable.
