File Opening Options...
• File Opening Options opens a dialog box that lists the following choices for how a file will be interpreted.
Ignore File Outline Cache
Opens a document without reading the cached outline of the document. If your document has been corrupted, this can be a way to recover it. The outline cache increases the speed of opening a document.
All In One Cell
Puts the entire file in one cell.
New Cell At Every Line
Puts every line of the file into a separate cell.
New Cell At Every Blank Line
Breaks the file into cells at every blank line.
New Cell At Every Two Blank Lines
Breaks the file into cells at every two blank lines.
Extract Resources
Extracts only the Macintosh resources of the file (PICT, TEXT, sound, etc.), ignoring the rest. This can be used to get information out of certain types of files that ordinarily cannot be opened. Note that you can open the Scrapbook, PICT, and EPSF files directly without using this option.
