| int32 | permissions; | * system specific file access rights */ | ||||
| int32 | size; | /* file size in bytes (data fork on Mac) or entries in directory*/ | ||||
| int32 | rfSize; | /* resource fork size (on Mac only) */ | ||||
| uint32 | cdate; | /* creation date: seconds since system reference time */ | ||||
