OS X Sherlock plug ins are slightly different from their OS 9 cousins. Basically they have no resource fork (the icon is copied over into the datafork). It should be fairly trivial to make a converter and I was wondering if anyone would be interested in making a quick and dirty converter...

I ask because I'm doing a long overdue updates on about 100 broken OS 9 Sherlock plugs. Having a converter would save a ton of time and would get these guys out the door much more quickly.

If anyone needs more info I can post it here or I can be reached at my mac.com email address.

QuickConvert by By Dave MacLachlan "takes data forks and turns thems into resource forks and vice versa."

Please note that there's another product by that name too, so make sure you get the right one. The other "QuickConvert," according to its author, "is an easy, scriptable, quick way to change MacCreator and MacType codes. Also add extensions to file names."
