Re: Resource fork help

We use the Mac commands Rez and DeRez to do this: DeRez to "decompile" the resource fork into a normal file, Rez to combine the data and resource forks back into a Mac file.  Both are installed with the developer tools, though, in the /Developer/Tools folder, so you can't count on them being on all users' machines.

I don't know of any such command off the top of my head, but someone else

might.  Note that commands like ditto and cp will copy resource forks and

metadata, but they don't encode it.  You may be able to trick them into

encoding it if you mount a temp file-system (disk-image) with FAT format,

from which you can directly read the "dot-underscore" file.
