It could be on Windows, but Macs store files with a separate "data fork" and
"resource fork". An .rsrc file consists entirely of resources, so the "data
fork" is empty. Since MetroWerks' CodeWarrior appears to have started life
as a Mac program, it seems that they just maintained the same file structure
for the Windows version.
