I guess it depends on the size of the resource fork.  I forget how big

resource fork is?

Yep.

$ ls -l 'Quicken Data.qdfm/Contents/Data File/rsrc'
-rw-rw---- 1 slamb slamb 1525662 Nov 25 12:10 Quicken Data.qdfm/ Contents/Data File/rsrc

I think it's unusual for resource forks to be this large - or even exist, on a modern system - but it will be true for any Quicken data file. ([EMAIL PROTECTED]@# Intuit.)
