Product Description:

App Bundler is an application designed to create OS X bundles (and optionally OS 9 packages) from an unbundled Carbon and/or Classic application.

App Bundler was primarily designed for bundling REALbasic applications. However, it should work on any application that includes the appropriate data. (See the documentation.)

What's new in this version:

Added support for setting a couple document type tags in the Info.plist file that REALbasic does not support. These keys define the role (editor, viewer, shell or none) that the app plays towards the file and the LSTypeIsPackage tag, which declares that the document type is a bundle. See the docs above for more info.
Note that these revisions to App Bundler were done in RB 5.5. I don't think I used any 5.5-specific code, but if I did and you need a version that works in 5.0 - 5.2.4, let me know.
Known Issue: the Open Recent menu isn't friendly to volumes that might not be present any longer. When building the menu (which happens when App Bundler opens, among other times), if a volume that a previously-opened file was on cannot be found, the OS will prompt you to log on to or insert that volume. I intend to fix this, I just haven't had time to work it all out yet!
