In the Macintosh Programmer's Workshop (MPW), the tool Rez (resource compiler)
supports a directive called "Read" that lets you read the data fork
of a file and save it as a resource.
	For example:

	Read 'CODE' (1) "TheFileName";

This statement would save the contents of TheFileName's data fork as a
CODE resource with an ID of 1.
