Description 

The following bug report has been submitted:
Platform:        Darwin-19.3.0-x86_64-i386-64bit
ChimeraX Version: 0.93 (2020-03-12)
Description
Used the Open File dialog and chose a file myfile.storm which was a symbolic link to myfile.txt.  ChimeraX seems to get the file name myfile.txt and doesn't know how to open it since the file suffix (.storm) is lost.
