Re: [Flashcoders] Un-HQX, Burn in Mac, make ISO in PC, and make copies in PC
This question is pretty usefull. I presume that the .hqx files that are Mac's flash projector use a ressource fork. Once you copy this on another os, you loose it. Without it the file won't launch again. Zipping it is not a solution as it doesn't preserve ressource forks. You could use .sit, but there are no AFAIK a windows analog. The .iso is a good alternative. BTW, is there a utility to give a broken .hqx is resource again ?

Re: [Flashcoders] Un-HQX, Burn in Mac, make ISO in PC, and make copies in PC
hqx are not macintosh projectors per se, they are the encoded versions of Macintosh (including the rsrc fork) projectors that _can_ be copied around, you would then decode the hqx on a Mac or using something like CDEverywhere on a PC, which decodes the hqx on the fly as it creates a disc image to burn in Nero et al. It's a bit old now, but I wrote the FAQ and tutorial on FlashKit in the Macintosh forum http://flashkit.com/board/showthread.php?t=396320 On 21 Mar 2006, at 15:31PM, erixtekila wrote: This question is pretty usefull.

Re: [Flashcoders] Un-HQX, Burn in Mac, make ISO in PC, and make copies in PC
hqx are not macintosh projectors per se, they are the encoded versions of Macintosh (including the rsrc fork) projectors that _can_ be copied around Hm… you're right. .hqx is binhex encoded file (something like uuencode) BTW I've made a confusion. I meant : Is it possible to give a resource fork back to a projector that loose it ? For ex, someone put a mac projector in a zip file. How is it possible to make it launchable again as an application ? Here is an example of the issue. Grab the huge archive there (very interesting stuff from Etienne Mineur): http://www.my-os.net/blog/index.php?2005/08/29/107-issey-miyake- nouveau-site Could some mac user open the projector file ? Not /me. Any idea ? --- erixtekila http://blog.v-i-a.net/ ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Zip whatever you want to preserve. That should be all. Charles P. On 3/20/06, Ramon Miguel M.

Re: [Flashcoders] Un-HQX, Burn in Mac, make ISO in PC, and make copies in PC
Will making it an ISO preserve it? I would think yes but when I'm about to burn 100 CDs, I'd just like to make sure.

RE: [Flashcoders] Un-HQX, Burn in Mac, make ISO in PC, and make copies in PC
Hi Ramon, Why don't use hdiutil included on the mac to convert the image or cd into the correct format? I think even that you use the Disk Utility on the mac to convert it to the ISO format. Anyway check out the hdiutil console app too. Works nice.
