I was messing around in fileobject.c today and came across this:
#ifdef HAVE_FOPENRF
if (*mode == '*') {
FILE *fopenRF();
f->f_fp = fopenRF(name, mode+1);
}
else
#endif
Googling for fopenRF() indicated it is a way to open resource forks on Macs
(all the Google hits were Python-related). Is that something that should
have been deleted with the demise of MacOS 9 support?
