Also (dare I ask for this too) If some nice soul could point me in the

os. calls or perhaps by way of a popen or ... ?
Mac OS X 10.5 comes with a Python "xattr" package pre-installed, which
the xattr command-line utility is built on top of. Furthermore, the
resource fork can be accessed as an extended attribute
(xattr.XATTR_RESOURCEFORK_NAME). This might also be true of Mac OS X
10.4, but I don't recall for sure and I don't have access to it to
check.
