- A while ago someone explained to me how to print a PS file with sendPS.
- I finally got this program via FTP and transfered it to my Mac.
-
- The problem is: The filetype of the transfered file is now is MacBinary,
- since it was created by FTP. Therefore, if I double-click on its icon,
- the Mac says it can't be executed, because the application that created the
- file can not be found.
-
- How can I tell it that the file *is* the application ???
