A droplet will act on whatever Mac file is dropped on it, including the
above. I drop image clippings on several droplets all the time to have them
automatically converted into 'PICT' files instead of 'drag' files.
Why do you think you need to hack with ResEdit to do that?
Are you having problems with a drop app?
For example, compile this as an application:
on open theseThings
repeat with thisThing in theseThings
tell application "Finder"
open thisThing
end tell
end repeat
end open
Drop anything on it. I tried these following "clipping" types:
a 'clpt'/'drag' file --> OK (a text clipping opens)
a 'clpp'/'drag' file --> OK (a picture clipping opens)
an 'ilma'/'drag' file --> OK (a mailto clipping opens)
an 'ilht'/'drag' file --> OK (a url clipping opens)
