πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

frombin macbinaryfile...

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so the program frombin reads a series of macbinary files and unwraps them. It's like unboxing but for files 🎁✨.

On the Mac 🍎, it will produce a file similar to the original one. the way that it just... restores the vibe? iconic.

On non-macs πŸ’», it will create (up to) three files:

  • one for the data fork, called <filename>.data
  • one for the resource fork, called <filename>.rsrc
  • one containing random information in a human readable format, called <filename>.info
not me being dramatic, but that's literally the whole description. no cap. 🫢
