A major annoyance that I've had with AutoDoubler is that the file TYPE and
file CREATOR of a compressed file cannot be changed with any of the
utilities that I have (including ResEdit). I understand that a typical
unknowledgable user will not need to change file TYPEs or CREATORs, but I
think that this may be an underlying problem that may surface as other
problems also.

The question: can a file's Finder info be changed if it has been AutoDoubled?
