Well, one nice little thing that will probably be in the new Finder is the
recognition of Version resources in the resource forks of files... Apple II DTS
recently (January 1991) defined a new resource type, rVersion, which stores
version, copyright, author, and such information about a program in a
resource... Useful for the Get Info box, which is where the technote hinted
that it might be used...
