Packages

[Klaus Major]

Hi Mark,

> definitive answer as to the packageness of a folder.
> Checking .suffixes will work, but the list of suffixes probably

> package that has been a regular folder may well have one, a regular  
> folder may not have one), and the presence of /Contents/PkgInfo or / 
> Contents/Info.plist is also not guaranteed ( though the only  
> packages I've seen so far without a pkgInfo or info.plist are .rtfd  
> and .band ).
> Definitely a pain.
