Hello everybody, I'm looking for some kind of exhaustive list which
maps filename extensions onto creator and filetype for MacOS ...say files with extension ".pdf" could be mapped on to a default filetype "PDF " and default creator "CARO" (4-byte values).
I could get hold of these mappings using a freeware tool and a bit of
reverse-engineering but I'd rather stick to a standard mapping if anything like that is available. Somebody had told me I could retrieve this info from a Sytem-file on my iMac but I was unable to open this file and view its contents.
Would be grateful to anyone who knows something about this and can help
me out.

hello,
this list is from the netatalk distribution - seems similar to what your looking for. i got it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/netatalk/
