======================================================================== Program Name: MacInfo version 1.2.0 Package Name: MACINF12.LZH Copyrights: KOBA (NIFTY-Serve:QFH00147) all rights reserved. OS: MS-DOS version 3.1 or later Last Modified: 1993/03/07 Encode Method: Encoded by LHA.EXE "A>lha x macinf12" for extract. ======================================================================== Charge/Distribution: This program is free to use and to distribute. Description: "MacInfo" is a program which gives you some information from the file created by Apple Macintosh computer on your PC/MS-DOS machine. It will be useful for the Mac and PC owners when Macintosh files exist on PC and want to get information of them right now. Modification from the "MacInfo" version 1.1.0 . First file information in the compressed file is to be given and reported. "MacInfo" checks the 'Macbinary' header and reports the following. 1. Single File Analysis Mode: Usage: A>macinfo . True filename on Macintosh Finder. . 4 characters of 'File Type', and analysis if defined. . 4 characters of 'File Creator', and analysis if defined. . File created date and last modified date. . File size, resource fork and data fork size. . Screen positions of icon. . Finder flags (Inited, Invisible, Bundled, etc.). . Information in the compressed file corresponds to a part of StuffIt, MacLHA and Compact Pro. It is not for all the compression forms and versions, but its probability is high. The contents of the information given by those compression forms are different. 2. File Listing Mode: Usage: A>macinfo . DOS filename if Macbinary file is detected, the following formation will be reported. . True filename on Macintosh Finder. . File size. . 4 characters of 'File Type', or analysis if defined. . Last modified date. Configurations of 'File Type' and 'Creator' You can add the new analysis information onto "MacInfo" by editing the configuration file named "MACINFO.CFG". Structures of "MACINFO.CFG" : . If using "#" on 1st column, it makes this line as a remark. . Keyword "[ file types ]" is a tag indicating the start of 'File Type' definitions. . Keyword "[ creators ]" is a tag indicating the start of 'File Creator' definitions and marking the end of 'File Type' definitions. * Note that do NOT remove the tag lines. . Structures of definition lines are as follows... column description ------ -------------------------------------------------------- 1 - 4 Type/Creator string on Macintosh. (Usually filled with 4 characters) 5 Must be "," (comma), but be ignored on this version. 6 - eol Analysis information. Max 80 characters are available. . I do not recommend reforming the information of 'APPL' by this configuration file. This File Type means "executable APPLications" as usual. However, if "MacInfo" detects this type, "MacInfo" will inspect the 'True Filename on the Finder'. Then, if the 'True Filename' includs special string ".SEA" (usually indicates "Self Extract Archive" file), "MacInfo" adopts this special information instead of a simple word "Application". Search for procedures of "MACINFO.CFG" : Configuration file "MACINFO.CFG" will be sought as follows... . Directory where running "MACINFO.EXE" exists. . Directories defined by "PATH" environment strings. . Current directory. ========================= Description of Mac2PC.EXE ========================= "Mac2PC" is a file converter which removes Macbinary header. It also converts CR (means 'End Of Line') to CR+LF for DOS standard text file. KOBA (NIFTY-Serve:QFH00147)
