Howdy,

I'm not finding it but I have one in ~/Library/Spotlight and something shows. However it uses the org.tug.tex UTI while the new TeXShop uses edu.uo.texshop.tex for .tex files and I have no idea if that does something different. I'm enclosing it here. Don;t think it can hurt anything to try it.
