ToggleFork
|
|
Description
|
|
Traditionally, Macintosh files have always been
constituted of two forks: the data fork and the resource
fork. The latter contains all kinds of resources (icons,
menus, strings etc.), used by the application or by the
system itself. The main draw back of this model is that,
when a Macintosh file is copied to another system, it
generally looses its resource fork and may become
unusable. With bundled applications, Apple has introduced
the notion of resources stored in the data fork of a file
rather than in the resource fork.
ToggleFork is a simple drag and drop tool which lets
you transfer the resources from one fork to the
other.
|
|
Usage
|
|
Just drag a file over the icon of ToggleFork:
- if it is a traditional file with both a data fork and a resource fork,
its resource fork will be rewritten in the data fork of a separate file
called by default "Out.datafork". The original file is unmodified.
- if it is a file containing resources in its datafork, all its resources
will be copied to the resource fork of a separate file called by default
"Out.rsrcfork". The original file is unmodified.
ToggleFork is scriptable so you can also drive it with AppleScript.

double-clicking.
It is a Carbon tool: you can use it on OS9 or OSX as well.
