Forgive me if this is a FAQ, but It was my impression that using
AppleVolumes.System in ETCDIR would allow the Mac to interpret the
various UNIX, PCs, etc extensions as the correct file types, even
without resource forks. Unfortunately, unless I create files from the
Mac, or use FileTyper to change the fork, everything shows up as text
files.

Is there any way to do this? Is AppleVolumes supposed to do it? I would
greatly appreciate any help & would definitely summarize for a FAQ.

Thanks,

Jonathan Wilner
