Type Fixer was originally written for Mac OS X, where sometimes plain text files without creator and type codes (such as those produced by TextEdit) are changed to SimpleText files, meaning that Classic will start up if you double click on the file.

Type Fixer was originally written for Mac OS X, where sometimes plain text files without creator and type codes (such as those produced by TextEdit) are changed to SimpleText files, meaning that Classic will start up if you double click on the file.

The creator and type codes for any file ending with ".txt" will be changed to the unknown code "????". This changes the owner application back to TextEdit. Open the droplet in the AppleScript Script Editor, change the codes and filter criterion as indicated in the script to suit your own needs, and resave it as either a Classic Applet for Mac OS 9 or earlier, or a Mac OS X Applet for Mac OS X.
