[Solved] "Open With" - how app can get filename?
« on: September 14, 2022, 03:33:13 pm »
User of CudaText tells that editor cannot handle the filename when he runs "Open With" from Finder. So the command-line handling of filenames don't work here, I guess. How to handle the "Open With" then? How does it pass filename to my app?

OS: Monterey, x64.

Does MacOS include the XDG utilities or an equivalent?

Solved. I now recalled that LCL calls TForm.OnDropFiles for those files.
