ToggleFork is a simple drag and drop tool which lets you transfer the resources from a fork to the other. it is a carbon app running both under OS9 and OSX.
The latter contains all kinds of resources used by the application or by the system itself.

Traditionally, Macintosh files have always been constituted of two forks: the data fork and the resource fork.

With bundled applications, Apple has introduced a new model: resources can now be stored in the data fork of a file rather than in its resource fork.

Here are some key features of "ToggleFork":
if it is a traditional file with both a data fork and a resource fork, its resource fork will be rewritten in the data fork of a separate file called by default "Out.datafork". The original file is unmodified.
if it is a file containing resources in its datafork, all its resources will be copied to the resource fork of a separate file called by default "Out.rsrcfork". The original file is unmodified.
