You are writing a comment about Opening Files With Associated App in Cocoa, here is a quick summary:

I knew that Carbon achieved this with LaunchServices, but was unsure about the Cocoa equivalent to LaunchServices. But, it turns out to be quite easy to use. (Hint: its <strong>NSWorkspace</strong>.)
