Better filetype & auxtype support #4

Closed JohnMBrooks closed 6 years ago

JohnMBrooks commented 6 years ago

Ideally retain filetype & auxtype between Mac OS files & ProDOS

And/or allow explicit filetype and auxtype suffix: PRODOS#FF0000 BIN.AT.2000#062000

I think the latter might be a more elegant solution since I think that attempting file kind translations on other systems (e.g. Linux, Windows) might be an exercise, and namely it would be great if we provided a consistent expectation for how Cadius works everywhere. Does the latter sit well with you? 🦄

Sorry for the delay in response, finally just got home stateside this weekend 😄
