[comp.unix.aux] AppleSingle file digestifier

pst@anise.acc.com (Paul Traina) (06/19/89)

I'm trying to hack together a little program that will take the printer
output from a toolbox program (i.e. MacDraw II) and dump it to a laserwriter
that is attached to a remote vax.  I've got all of the tools working
perfectly, except for the extraction of the data fork of the
/usr/lib/mac/Postscript{0,1,...} file.  This is a AppleSingle file, and
I need the data fork (the postscript commands from it).  I've hacked
together a really stupid way to extract the data fork from that file,
but what I really need is a utility that will pull out any fork that I
desire out of an AppleSingle file.

I know how to do it,  so I'm just trying to avoid re-inventing the wheel.
If you've got something that will suit my needs, please let me know.
