The -icon-position option will attempt to preserve folder window positions,
scroll bars, views etc. for Apple/Unix file formats that support this
information (see below for which Apple/Unix encoding are supported).
This information is stored in the 'FinderInfo' part of a Apple/Unix directory.
For example, in a CAP directory structure a directory called 'dirA' will
have the necessary FinderInfo stored in file '.finderinfo/dirA'. This file
stores information including, the folder's location and size on screen,
its scroll positions, folder View (view as Icons, Small Icons, etc.).
However, the similar FinderInfo data for the 'root' folder is a special case.
For example, if a directory called '/some/dir/macfiles' is a CAP volume that
is mounted on a Mac as 'macfiles', then the FinderInfo for this directory
is stored in the file '/some/dir/.finderinfo/macfiles' - which is outside
the CAP directory structure.
To get round this, an extra option, '-root-info' is used that takes as its
argument the name of the file that stores the root folder's FinderInfo.
Using the above example, the command file options will be something like:
% mkhybrid --cap -root-info /some/dir/.finderinfo/macfiles /some/dir/macfiles
The format of the root FinderInfo file must be the same as the 'double-dash'
option(s) given on the command line.
The Apple/Unix encodings that mkhybrid can decode the root FinderInfo are:
CAP:
CAP directory: /some/dir/macfiles
Root FinderInfo file: /some/dir/.finderinfo/macfiles
Netatalk:
Netatalk directory: /some/dir/macfiles
Root FinderInfo file: /some/dir/.AppleDouble/RootInfo
EtherShare:
EtherShare directory: /some/dir/macfiles
Root FinderInfo file: /some/dir/.rsrc/macfiles
If an HFS disk is mounted on a Linux platform, then the root FinderInfo
files are:
Option 'fork=cap':
Root FinderInfo file: /mountpoint/.rootinfo
Option 'fork=double':
Root FinderInfo file: /mountpoint/%RootInfo
Option 'fork=netatalk':
Root FinderInfo file: /mountpoint/.AppleDouble/RootInfo
The '-root-info' option implies the '-icon-position' option. Future releases
of mkhybrid may automatically find the root FinderInfo file.
The volume name is not set from the root FinderInfo file. Use the -V or
-hfs-volid options to set the volume name.
Currently UShare, SGI/XINET, PC Exchange and SFM Apple/Unix root FinderInfo
files are not supported by mkhybrid - more information about these formats
is required in order to supoort them.
AppleSingle and MacBinary are file only formats - they don't support folders
or volumes.
Using this option, it is now possible to make a nearly true representation
of a Mac folder layout on a Unix/Linux platform.
