- hello...
-
- desktop representation is out of the question (too different for everybody),
- but executor should at least put its resource forks in a subdirectory without
- mangling the name. Other schemes could depend on softlinks to that directory.
- (would only have to be fixed up when folders were created) Mangling the name
- in the current directory is ugly.
-
- The easy road to get executor to deal with a network on a netatalk-supported
- host will be to depend on kernel DDP and link in the netatalk libs. so why
- not use a compatible naming scheme now and avoid the headache later?
-
- btw, ardi's bugs/feedback page is broken. anyone there?
