I'm porting an application from UNIX that makes extensive use of the
hierarchical file structure.  It would be nice to be able to use folders
in a similar manner on the Mac.  But, Inside Mac seems to contain only
one reference to folders - it says that you can put a file in the same
folder as an existing file by setting the folder number field to the
appropriate value.

Does anybody know anything more about folders?  Are they accesible from
applications, or just via the finder?

Much obliged.  Mailed responses will be sumamrized to the net.

John
