FileTypes and Creators

[Ray Horsley]

Anybody know how to find out what these 8 characters are for any given  
Mac file?  I'm particularly interested in .zip files but it would be  
nice to know how to ascertain this for any Mac file.  Getting the  
"long files" or the detailed files" usually leaves off the 11th param  
which is just what I'm looking for; the creator and file type.

Thanks,
