hmm. A/UX does something like:
foo data fork
%foo resource fork
and i dunno what for the finder info...
it'd probably be a good idea to follow the A/UX convention --
it's a unix on the mac and i for one would like to see
the mac port of NetBSD be as A/UX compatible in terms of things
like *that* as possible... (but no, i don't want NetBSD to become
svr2... *chuckle* 8-)
