A quick question for the gurus: What are directory subtypes $4 and $8? Their
icons are respectively a folder with an arrow pointing to it and a folder with
a black tab. I've never seen files or icons of these types, but I wondered what
they're for. I guessed that they have to do with AppleShare, which would
explain why I've never seen them ...

Thanks in advance.
