No go. Here is the relevant part of the plist:

<key>CFBundleDocumentTypes</key>
	<array>
		<dict>
			<key>CFBundleTypeExtensions</key>
			<array>
<string>.rbox</string>
			</array>
			<key>CFBundleTypeIconFile</key>
			<string>StandaloneDoc.icns</string>
			<key>CFBundleTypeName</key>
<string>Recipe Box Files</string>
			<key>CFBundleTypeOSTypes</key>
			<array>
<string>rbox</string>
			</array>
			<key>CFBundleTypeRole</key>
			<string>Editor</string>
		</dict>
	</array>


The app does not create new files, it just opens the existing stack, originally a LC file. I 
tried a "save as..." but that didn't work either. Is there a way to set the signature on an 
existing file? I did try and the stack wouldn't open, presumably it's corrupted.
