When using tcsh, you can do the following: % ls -al */rsrc When in a directory, to find if there are any resource forks. The result looks like this: -rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 11644 26 Nov 20:44 Classic Support UI/rsrc -rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 14477 26 Nov 20:44 Classic Support/rsrc -rw-r--r-- 1 root unknown 0 4 Feb 16:05 Classic Update Log.txt/rsrc -rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 789387 26 Nov 20:44 Classic/rsrc -rw-rw-rw- 1 kirk unknown 0 8 Feb 2003 Clipboard/rsrc But running the same command while in bash doesn't work - is there something I'm missing? Does bash not see the /rsrc files? Or is it something to do with the way it globs?
