OS X creates ._ files to store extended attributes as well as resource forks. You can use "xattr -l file" to see whether a file has any extended attributes (files with extended attributes also have an "@" after their permissions in the output of "ls -l") and "xattr -d attr_name file" to delete them.

Thanks, "xattr -l <file>" seems to be what I'm after. Cheers Adam _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
