Nobody's gotten around to doing what? 1) Allowing access to Associated Files? a) Associated files correspond to Resource forks. These forks contain Macintosh menus, dialog boxes, etc (usually). Not very useful on a PC. b) How could MS-DOS represent this concept? 2) Allow reading HFS format discs? If a publisher publishes a CD-ROM in HFS format, its normally because it only contains files understandable to Macintosh programs. This makes it unnecessary to publish in portable format like ISO-9660. Since publishing in HFS allows full use of Mac icons and file names, and is completely transparent to the Mac, some Mac publisher prefer this format. There is 1 Reply.
