Resource fork

Vielleicht sollte hier auch ein Verweis auf die "Resource fork" der Mac OS-Betriebssysteme angebracht werden, aber "Resource fork" fehlt noch (in der englischen Wikipedia ein umfangreichser Artikel).

"The resource fork is a construct of the Mac OS operating system used to store structured data in a file, alongside and tightly bound to unstructured data within the data fork, and implemented in all of the filesystems used for system drives on the Macintosh (MFS, HFS and HFS Plus). While the resource fork is probably mostly used by applications and other executables, every file is able to have a resource fork, and so its use is not limited to applications alone. For example, a word processing file might store its text in the data fork, while storing any embedded images in the same file's resource fork."
