In OS X, you can select a notebook and "get Info..." from the Finder (cmd-I). You can then select which app opens the notebook. You can select Player. There is an option to change all files of the same type (.nb files) to show the same behaviour. This should work most of the time. If you want to open a doc with Mathematica proper, you can open it from within Mathematica. You can also right-click -- cmd-Click and select Mathematica from the list of choices to "open with..." This provides you with a way to override the default behaviour. You can even open files in BBEdit or TextEdit this way. You may have a problem with .m files, though. Xcode uses this extension for objective c files, and in my experience it is a crap shoot which app opens them, regardless of the default behaviour. If you do not have Xcode installed, there will be no problem. So a combination of default assignment using "get Info..." and the specific override using the contextual menus should provide you with what you want. george On Mar 12, 2009, at 3:21 AM, Steven Matthew Anderson wrote: > When I double click on a notebook I want just want to view it.
