Now we had the idea to write an applescript which read out the resource

Does someone has an idea? I don't know how an Mac stores the filetype.

Here's one I had worked on...and it's not in the resource fork, it's part of the file metadata, and no, they are not the same thing.

This was originally written for OS 9, so it also truncates to 31 chars, etc. It's decently commented, and has quite a few file types in there already.

Did it ever get revised with handlers? ;-)
