5 MAKE AN APPLICATION LAUNCHABLE BY DROPPING FILES ON ITS ICON
=================================================================
- Prepare an Info.plist file for your application derived from file
ide/Xcode4/plists/editor-Info.plist which allows any file to be dropped
on the application icon.
You can edit this file in Xcode and change
Document types/Item 0/CFBundleTypeExtensions/Item 0
from the current "*" to the desired file extension. Use several items to declare
several extensions.

- Call fl_open_callback() at the beginning of your main() function that
sets what function will be called when a file is dropped on the application icon.

- In Xcode, set the "Info.plist File" build setting of your target application
to the Info.plist file you have prepared.

- Rebuild your application.
