Resource Remover deletes the resource fork from macintosh files.
This is useful to move files on platforms different from the Mac.
Moving a 'cross platform' file from Mac to other platform can cause trouble because others platform doesn't understand 'resource' and try to read them as they where data.
It's also useful for web files stored on server to save disk space considering web server doesn't use the resource fork of files.
Removing the resource fork of files before putting them on a web server results in a hard disk space saving, ad a short upload time if you send using binary mode.
Also stocking the files for backup purpose, if your Web Editor can re-build the page info from the text, is convenient using 'resource fork free' files.
Removing the resource fork from TEXT , GIF , JPEG... and others can really save lot of disk space (up to 50 % and more in some cases).
