No, no, no: when I open a .tex file, I want to open a .tex file, period.
I don't want TeXshop to process it. If I want to open a pdf file, I open
a pdf file. If I want to process a tex file, I press the LaTeX button in
TeXshop. Please, no action behind my back. Right now, I am working on a
1000 page book. I don't want TeXshop to process it each time I open the
main .tex file.
