Hello:

Quick question: Is there a way to delete the resource fork of a file?

Reason for the question: I just purchased a new digital camera, and so am
now using the "Image Capture" application to pull photos off the camera. I
have a script that makes two copies of each photo; one set is edited,
shrunken, and uploaded to my web site, while the other set is kept
unaltered as originals. For the original set, I'd like to delete the
preview image, as it takes up precious disk space. (Yes, it's only ~ 50KB,
but add those kilobytes up and pretty soon you're talking real disk space.)

Thanks.
