At someone's suggestion, I've looked at my MacEnvy
file after downloading from sumex and debinhexing
and unstuffing with StuffIt 1.5.1. It shows the
following resources:

BNDL ID = -4064
cdev "MacEnvy" ID = -4064
CNTL ID = -4045 (also 4046 4047 4048)
DITL ID = -4064
envy ID = 0
FREF ID = -4064
ICN# (looks like an icon with screen and keyboard)
ICON (shows six icons with one in a square)
mach ID = -4064
ncrt ID = -4064
PICT (with a stylized font reading MacEnvy)
vers ID = 1

When I double-click FREF it says File Type cdev,
icon localID 0, and fileName (blank). I typed
in MacEnvy as fileName.

The Get Info box, however, shows MacEnvy with a
generic document icon, Kind: says "document",
though it knows that this is MacEnvy 1.0 by Ken McLeod.

When I put this file in my system folder, it isn't
treated like a cdev, i.e., it doesn't show up in
my control panel.

Anyone know what's wrong?

P.S. I am using ResEdit Version 1.2b2 which came
with some commercial software I own. Is that too
old a version?
