MERGEPEF(1) BSD General Commands Manual MERGEPEF(1)NAME
/usr/bin/MergePef -- Merge multiple PEF containers into one file
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/MergePef [-v] [-t type] [-c creator] <input-file> ... -o <output-file>
DESCRIPTION
The /usr/bin/MergePef command reads all input files, interpreting them as PowerPC Executable Format (PEF) container files. It combines the
files into one PEF containter and writes it to the output file. MergePEF does not read Standard Input and will not write Standard Output.
The /usr/bin/MergePef command accepts the following arguments:
-v Produce verbose diagnostics to standard output.
-t type Set the Extended HFS file type of the output file. The default value is 'shlb'.
-c creator Set the Extended HFS file creator of the output file. The default value is 'MACS'.
<input-file> One or more paths to PEF file containers.
-o <output-file>
Path to the output file.
NOTES
The PEF container format is supported on Mac OS X by the Carbon runtime libraries, but is not the preferred executable format on Mac OS X.
There are no developer tools to create PEF containers natively on Mac OS X.

FIXUPRESOURCEFORKS(1) BSD General Commands Manual FIXUPRESOURCEFORKS(1)NAME
/System/Library/CoreServices/FixupResourceForks -- Join AppleDouble files into two-fork HFS resource files.
SYNOPSIS
/System/Library/CoreServices/FixupResourceForks [-q[uiet]] [-nosetinfo] [-nodelete] path ...
DESCRIPTION
FixupResourceForks is to SplitForks what matter is to antimatter. Given one or more directories that reside on an HFS or Extended HFS
("HFS+") volume, it scans those directories for AppleDouble files and, if found, rejoins them into two-fork resource files. The resource
fork data can then be accessed with normal Carbon Resource Manager calls, be processed with DeRez(1), and accessed from the POSIX file system
interface through the ..namedfork/rsrc path mechanism.
/System/Library/CoreServices/FixupResourceForks takes the following flags and arguments:
-q[uiet]
Suppress verbose diagnostics to standard output.
-nosetinfo
Do not set file system metadata (type, creator, flags, permissions) from the data in the AppleDouble file.
-nodelete
Leave the AppleDouble files in the directory after copying their resource data into the resource fork of the main file.
path ...
One or more directory paths. Note that FixupResourceForks only acts on entire directories, not in individual files.
FILES
foo Data fork of file 'foo'
NOTES
SplitForks will fail with error 2 if the designated file is not on an HFS or Extended HFS file system volume.
