Actually that's not correct. A .app is actually a directory not a file. If you right click on the app and choose 'show package contents' you'll see the directory structure underneath.

I know that, but it's presented and treated within the OS as a single file. Mr. Winder had uploaded the directory as a directory so I'd have had to download each part of the tree manually and then re-assembled it on the local machine. Much easier to have it treated as the single virtual file and zipped

wget or curl will grab a directory structure for you. Much easier than grabbing file by file. But yes, an archive is easier still.

And it only took me 2 minutes from request to archive it and upload it so not a lot of hassle haha.

There's a small terminal hack to get your dashboard widgets to sit on your desktop all the time. I don't remember how to do it but it's definitely doable and it's just a small entry to terminal that does it.
