Push changes to package attached to a note

[mdschneider 0]

I have an OmniOutliner file that I have attached to a note in Evernote. When I attach the file Evernote gives me a warning that the OmniOutliner file is actually an OSX package and that it will be attached as a zip file. This is fine. However if I open the attached zip file, edit the contents with OmniOutliner, and save the OmniOutliner file there appears to be no way for Evernote to know that I have changed the file and want an updated zip file of the OmniOutliner package attached to the note.

Am I doing something wrong or is push functionality for OSX packages not available?

Edit September 30, 2011: Note this is not solved by choosing the "Open With" dialogue when right-clicking on the note in Evernote because the OmniOutliner file is saved a zip file and then OmniOutliner on my Mac doesn't know how to open zip files.

Anyone have an idea about this?

 

I have many OmniOutliner, Voodoopad, and a few Scrivener files stored in Evernote. Because these files are packages stored as zip files, they can be opened only through Archive Utility. This is fine if I just need to open and look at the file, but if I want to make changes, I have to duplicate and save a new copy, since any changes made to the original are not pushed to Evernote.

 

Is this a problem with Evernote or with Archive Utility? I notice that the zipfile icon has a small lock on it. Does Archive Utility have a preference for saving changes? If so, how do I find this? 

 

Pages documents are also packages, but I have no problems with these, as they are not zipped in Evernote. In the past I have used DevonThink and Together; in both applications all of these file types (Omni, Voodoo, Scrivener) are available as Quick Look. 

 

I use Evernote for virtually everything now, and would hate to have to move these attachments.   Is there any way to link files to Evernote which are stored outside of the app?
