== Welcome! ==
Welcome to the File Formats Wiki! I see you've picked up the (somewhat tricky) infobox syntax right off the bat; your first few articles are perfectly formatted, as far as I can see. Congratulations! [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 20:24, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

:Thanks for the warm welcome! I hope to make this wiki proud. [[User:RebeccaRGB|RebeccaRGB]] ([[User talk:RebeccaRGB|talk]]) 17:52, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

::You've got some neat character charts in your site... perhaps you'd like to work on the [[Character Encodings]] section a bit? Perhaps the pages there could link to the charts in your site where appropriate. (But it seems you missed Commodore [[PETSCII]] in your otherwise pretty thorough set of charts.) [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 19:07, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

:::Certainly! I'm happy to contribute all that I have! [[User:RebeccaRGB|RebeccaRGB]] ([[User talk:RebeccaRGB|talk]]) 08:19, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Macintosh resource file

{{FormatInfo

|extensions={{ext|rsrc}}, {{ext|dfont}}
}}

The '''Macintosh resource file''' format was used by the Resource Manager in Mac OS Classic for storing resources used by Mac OS Classic applications as well as file associations and executable code. Traditionally, this format is used in the [[Resource Fork]] of a file on the [[HFS]] and [[HFS+]] file systems; however, when resource files are still used in Mac OS X applications, the same format is used in a file with the extension .rsrc.

Resource Fork

2013-02-08T18:52:48Z

RebeccaRGB:

{{FormatInfo
|formattype=electronic
|subcat=Filesystem
}}

Pre-OS X and some OS X Macintosh files have two forks: the data fork, and the resource fork, which is subdivided into resources. Many file formats use the resource fork to store data.

A resource has a four-character type code, an ID, and data. The type code is generally unique to the type of data stored within, but this may not be the case with application-specific formats.

Resource forks are usually invisible to the end-user on a Mac platform, but when Mac files are placed in a medium where users of other operating systems can see them (e.g., Windows), they are often visible as an additional subdirectory called '''resource.frk''', or else a name with an underscore (_) as its first character (e.g., _MACOSX for OS X files) containing subdirectories and files that parallel the structure of the files they are associated with.

A '''HyperCard stack''' is a collection of text, images, and sometimes audio, organized using the metaphor of a stack of cards and made interactive using a scripting language called HyperTalk.

WOBA

2013-02-07T18:42:29Z

{{FormatInfo
|formattype=electronic
|subcat=Graphics
}}

The '''WOBA''' format was used inside a [[HyperCard stack]] to store black-and-white bitmap images using a form of lossless compression invented by Bill Atkinson. The format has no formal name; the name WOBA was given to the format by the lead developers of Project 11, an attempt at a HyperCard clone, in the early 2000s. The name WOBA stands for "Wrath of Bill Atkinson" and was inspired by the complexity and non-obviousness of the compression algorithm.

The WOBA format was never used outside of HyperCard, so any instances of a WOBA image by itself were most likely extracted from a HyperCard stack as part of a reverse-engineering effort. An extracted WOBA image usually includes the block header from the HyperCard stack format to make it easily identifiable.
