Actually I tried to rename a regular app to .saver and it would not allow it, it converts the name to name.saver.app and will refuse to take the .app off the end.
I also couldn't find a way to show the .app extension or to remove it. I can add it, but then I think it's really called name.app.app, as osX removes the .app and doesn't seem to let you see the contents of the app. But I'm sure there's a way.
Not sure what distinguishes an app from a bundle. There must be some differences.
But I don't really think it will matter. I think we have to look at creating the screensaver at the sourcecode level not at the compiled-file level. I don't think it's as simple as just substituting the saver file, as I did that and it did not work.
