Comment (by kencu):
It may not be possible, but I think that with the proper entry in the
Info.plist, if you drag and drop a file onto the app icon, it would be
passed on to the shell script as an argument. Then, after screening out
the {{{-psn}}} if needed, you would do something like this:
{{{
exec /opt/local/bin/gedit "${@}"
}}}
and {{{gedit}}} would open the file. Hopefully.
In an ideal world, {{{gedit}}} might come up as an option for opening the
file when you right-or-control click on it too.
Gedit is pretty excellent -- in fact, remarkable excellent. I currently
use bbedit mostly, but my current version won't work on Catalina as it's
apparently somehow still i386.
