About

Sent: 6/25/98 7:46 PM The 'Get Info' script (c)1998 Wade Riddick This little script allows you to *easily* change the file type & creator information for any file dropped on it. It'll also show the size of the data and resource forks (handy if you have a disk that runs under some funky metric system where 1 byte = 60K). If you drop a folder, it'll scan every file down to the last subfolder. You change each one at a time or hit the 'Do All' button which will alter *every* subsequent file to whatever you've just entered in the fields (use this prudently). This script requires Dialog Runner and who knows what other scripting extensions. To get it to work, you'll have to drop the resource file in the Preferences folder. Both the applet and script are included for your edification/amusement. It runs slow as a dog (let me clarify: a lethargic bassethound) even on a G3, but that's an Applescript problem.
