[PD] "open with" on os x

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

This is a bug I run into a lot.  Basically, if you have a lot of  
versions of Pd, it confused the assocations system.  Try removing  
random ones.  I have found that I have to clean out the associations  
system from time to time because I am always trying many different  
versions.

I forgot how to do it now... I think it's done by deleting some file  
in /Library/Caches and rebooting.
