I believe it goes back to the original Macintosh, which was the first and only computer in the world to have files with something called a "resource fork". The resource fork contained pieces of data called "resources". Then Microsoft stole the name, and before you knew, everyone was using it. It's all been downhill from there. :-) -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
