dot-file removal is one of my standard steps when creating a cross-platform CD. From what little I can tell, I assume those files are probably Mac resource forks that only show up on a platform that doesn't understand them (Windows). Is that the way you guys understand them?

Yes, that appears to be the case. But it writes them for most files whether or not they have a resource fork, and of course directories have the Finder info stored in .DS_Store.

I've written a utility to clean my MP3 player after I copy files, but it seems silly to have to do that just to accomodate Apple's insistence that the world be Mac-compatible.
