FixupResourceForks(1) BSD General Commands Manual FixupResourceForks(1)
NAME
/System/Library/CoreServices/FixupResourceForks -- Join AppleDouble files
into two-fork HFS resource files.
SYNOPSIS
/System/Library/CoreServices/FixupResourceForks [-q[uiet]] [-nosetinfo]
[-nodelete] path ...
DESCRIPTION
FixupResourceForks is to SplitForks what matter is to antimatter. Given
one or more directories that reside on an HFS or Extended HFS ("HFS+")
volume, it scans those directories for AppleDouble files and, if found,
rejoins them into two-fork resource files. The resource fork data can
then be accessed with normal Carbon Resource Manager calls, be processed
with DeRez(1), and accessed from the POSIX file system interface through
the ..namedfork/rsrc path mechanism.
/System/Library/CoreServices/FixupResourceForks takes the following flags
and arguments:
-q[uiet]
Suppress verbose diagnostics to standard output.
-nosetinfo
Do not set file system metadata (type, creator, flags, permis-
sions) from the data in the AppleDouble file.
-nodelete
Leave the AppleDouble files in the directory after copying their
resource data into the resource fork of the main file.
path ...
One or more directory paths. Note that FixupResourceForks only
acts on entire directories, not in individual files.
FILES
foo Data fork of file 'foo'
NOTES
SplitForks will fail with error 2 if the designated file is not on an HFS
or Extended HFS file system volume.
