I've been reading the source for Andy Hertzfeld's program "Icon Bounce"
(published in _Programmers At Work_) and in it, he opens the desktop
file where the Finder caches all the icons, by doing the equivalent of
the LightSpeed C:
OpenResFile("\pDeskTop");
When I try this, I always get "File Not Found" error.  What is the secret
to make this work?
Did old versions of Icon Bounce stop working when HFS came out?
