I'll add a little to Elia's description. Rename your resource files to have a .rsr
extension (rather than the Mac convention of .rsrc). I'd also rename all your files to
8 or fewer characters to keep things simple.
Using a PC-format floppy causes the Mac to break the data and resource forks of all
the files into separate files. The resource forks go into a parallel resource.frk
folder. If you don't have a floppy drive on your Mac, you can do this manually. Since
the resource files created by Constructor only have resource forks, you can simply put
the file in the resource.frk directory and create an empty file with the same name for
the data fork. Good luck.
