    We have chosen to include all file information into a separate text file instead of trying to use native OS facilities or surcharging the file path.

    We use a side (text) file named _FileInformation.txt containing, for each file of the current folder, the Prodos file informations :
        - Type 
        - AuxType
        - Version Create
        - Minimum Version
        - Access Flags
        - Macintosh Finder Info

   We use native system facilities to store :
        - File Name
        - Creation Date
        - Modification Date
        - Visible / Invisible attribute

     You can simply create your _FileInformation.txt file with the Type, AuxType and other information and Assemble with Merlin32 your source file to get a binary file as output.

    During the transfer to a Prodos disk Image, CADIUS will read the _FileInformation.txt file content to populate the disk Image with File Data + File Resource Fork + Prodos File information.

    The idea of having a separate _FileInformation.txt file is to guarantee that exporting Prodos files (from a Prodos disk image) into a modern file system (like Windows, Linux or Mac OSX) won't loose any of the original Data or Information. You can Export / Import without loosing anything.
