I have a set of file in a directory that I wish to index. In 2.0, I modified the ftypes file to describe how these files look, and which command to invoke to get the correct description line into the index. In 3.0, this all changed. I now have setup the .index.ftypes file correctly (I can see that DL knows the file types because when I use ixbuild it displays the file types of each of the files it is reading). However, the command fileType-desc command isn't called and the description for each file winds up empty. Has anyone figured out how to do this correctly? -- Charles Spitzer charlie@snowflake.az.stratus.com Telecom Customer Assistance Center Stratus Computer, Inc. Phoenix, AZ 85018

Create a service description file (i.e., <file>.service) under ~/Library/Services with the following information. Replace the <TEXTs> as needed. Run "make_services" from Terminal and then use ixbuild -g (note: DO NOT USE Librarian TO CREATE YOUR INDEX SINCE IT DOES NOT USE THE -g OPTION: see ixbuild(1)) Filter: Port: NXUNIXSTDIO Send Type: NXTypedFilenamePboardType:<YOUR_FILE_TYPE_GOES_HERE> Return Type: IXFileDescriptionPboardType Executable: <YOUR_EXECUTABLE_GOES_HERE> Later, --Felix
