Comment(by rudloff@…):
Bluefish integrates very well if it is built with Quartz. It uses the OSX
menubar, the shortcuts, drag and drop from Finder. So having a bundle
makes it feel even more like a native app.
The [http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ desktop
entry] is needed to open files with Bluefish from Thunar, Nautilus, etc
(it makes it appear in the "Open file with" menu). I think it is also used
for Xfce and Gnome Applications menu.[[BR]]
Most GTK applications install one, but for some reason Bluefish doesn't.
Would it be acceptable to add the bundle for the ''quartz'' variant only
?[[BR]]
I personnaly use a lot of GTK/Quartz applications daily (Thunar, Pidgin,
Transmission, etc) and having a bundle is really a nicer way to open
applications than having to open the terminal.
