Name
SplitForks
Synopsis
SplitForks { -u | [-v] pathname
}
Copies the resource fork and HFS attributes from a file named
filename
into a separate file named
._filename
, equivalent to an AppleDouble Header
file. The original file retains the resource fork and HFS metadata as
well.
If pathname refers to a file, that
file’s resource fork and metadata are split out. If
pathname is a directory,
SplitForks
does a recursive descent into the
directory, working on every file within it.
FixupResourceForks
undoes the actions of
SplitForks
.
Options
-
-u
