[thelist] Default text editor on mac

[Erik]

That will work great for files with no type/creator.

FinderPop is amazing for this and a ton of other stuff - comes with a 
Change Creator and Type "popplet" - you just put a file with a 
type/creator in a certain folder from then on you get a contextual 
menu to change any file's creator/type to that ... 
http://www.finderpop.com - is super cheap shareware.

There may also be a few such things in the BBEdit's Utilities folder 
-  DropBB  - you can drop anything on it and it will change all TEXT 
files into to BBEdit TEXT files.

>In OS 9 you need to open the "File Exchange" control panel and make changes
>in the 'PC Exchange' tab. Just select BBedit for all of the file extensions
>that you want to use it for (.html, .shtml, .txt, .cfm, .whatever). Use
>Advanced Options for further control.
