A couple weeks ago people expressed interest in my salvaged MacSSH source
and I finally got a round tuit. It's very pretty, all symmetric and frilly,
and perfectly circular.
I make no guarantees. If you get it working, I want your changes. :) However,
I have salvaged as many of the resource forks as I can and manually massaged
the files. I have not tried to build it. CW6 or better strongly advised. I
threw the .sit into

Great, thanks! Good job I still have a Gopher-capable browser somewhere on this machine;
I'll take a gander at this when I've got time (which could be a while).

If you have Fx 3.6 or below, Gopher still works.
If you have Fx 4.0 or up (this also works in TenFourFox and should work
in SeaMonkey),

Would anyone object if I put this into github or bitbucket? Or, rather,
would anyone use the resulting repository?

I shudder to think what github would do with the resource forks unless you
singled all of it (which would then make it rather inconvenient to manage).

I'd do what I've done for my own classic MacOS code: DeRez it, version

and CW, of course.
For maintainable resources, I'd want to use the Rez templates.

I'd use it. I was considering doing the same myself, but if you're offering, go
for it.
How do Git and Mercurial deal with resource forks? Also, are there clients for same on
"classic" Mac OS? I could go as late as the last version of OS 9, but I'd
prefer something that ran on 7.5.3 if possible.
I suppose I could do my own research on that last question, too.

As far as I know, they don't. Someone (Josh Juran?) was looking at making a
custom git client for OS 9 running under MacRelix, which is his command-line
shell system, but I don't think it's in any runnable order.
There was a MacCVS that would automatically handle the fork issue, but I've
never used it personally.
