Sarah and Chipp,

Please! Don't set the filetype to empty. This can cause unexpected results, such as files appearing at random locations in Finder windows or even off-screen on the desktop, particularly on older systems. Have mercy with the users of your software. Instead, set the filetype to "????????".

Is the Mac so brittle that merely copying a file from any file system that doesn't support Mac metadata will cause these anomalies?

I've seen the Finder be a tad flaky now and then, but nothing quite as extreme as moving files to inaccessible locations by simply not having a creator code assigned to them.
