[netatalk-admins] Unix command support for AppleDouble files

I have a minor problem with some users who like to work in their Unix
directories with things like "mv" and "cp", while also using those same
directories through netatalk afpd. This is leading to "broken" files because
they forget to also change the .AppleDouble header files when working from the
Unix side.

So, I'm thinking about writing a set of scripts to run in place of "mv", "cp",
and "rm" that will automatically take care of this. I don't think it will be
terribly difficult, but before re-inventing the wheel I thought I'd see if
anyone out there has already done this and is willing to share.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
