Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't CpMac(1) and MvMac(1) part of the darwin distribution/tools?


Well, I thought so, but apparently its part of the Developer tools? Does that count?

$ locate CpMac
/Developer/Tools/CpMac
/usr/share/man/man1/CpMac.1


in contrast to FixupResourceForks, which is in the System framework:

$ locate FixupRes
/System/Library/CoreServices/FixupResourceForks
/usr/share/man/man1/FixupResourceForks.1



But anyway with Tiger, now the "standard" cp, tar, mv, and all the rest pretty much do the trick; from the CpMac(1) man page:


As of Mac OS X 10.4, the cp command preserves metadata and resource forks
of files on Extended HFS volumes, so it can be used in place of CpMac.
The /Developer/Tools/CpMac command will be deprecated in future versions
of Mac OS X.
