}..............................You can also configure classes of files,
}using name patterns, types, and auxiliary types, so that clicking on a
}file icon for that class will fire up a DIFFERENT application with that
}file provided as input.  For example, to edit an icon file I just click
}on it and an icon editor application starts up, with the particular icon
}file already open.

Where can I get more information on doing this.  I've had an icon for an 
application indicate the use of basic launcher to run he program but in my 
searching thorough the scads of documentation, haven't found an 
description of what you're describing.
