Attractors

I don't believe that BD has messed with the FCS standard. What
they have done is to use the resource fork of the Mac file to identify the
file type that Attractors will read and the file type that it will write.
Attractors will read files of type 'BDLM' and writes a type of 'AttR'. If
you have the Apple ResEdit (resource editor), you can edit the resource
fork of your Mac file to change the type from '????' to 'BDLM' so that
Attractors will read it. This editing consists only of changing a single
entry in a simple dialog box. If you are writing Mac software, it is a
simple matter to set a constant so that you can open any type of file.
Best, Gary
