Subject: [*] File-Type-Creator.list 

Hi netters

In response to Tom Wilson's wish for a list of file types/creators
I suggested "hacking" MacTools' Rescue and / or Norton Utilities.
These utilities must know about as many as possible TYPEs / CREATORs.

I did it myself and _two_ results follow:
1. Well, the list (+ an additional list from Tom)
2. As I worked on creating/sorting/merging the results from the two
mentioned sources, I found something interesting.
MacTools has almost twice as many entries in their list (compared to NU)
and MacTools has the ability to ADD items to its list.
All this boils down to one thing: MacTools has a better chance of
reconstructing troubled disks. Food for thought for the debate about
"which disk saving utility is better"
And I used an OLD version of MacTools Rescue (1.2), and Norton Utils 2.0.
