You left off the -rsrcFork flag, so you didn't copy any resource forks either.

Also, I take it you don't back up.

By the way, if you haven't deleted the files in the trash yet, there's a good chance they still have their resource forks. I'm not familiar with ditto, but if it's a standard Unix command, most of them don't copy or recognize resource forks.

That's why I used ditto. The problem is that the program that trashed the files did not! I think that is clear from my original message.
