I was setting up my N900 for backups, and while looking through the MyDocs directory, I found this:

Code:
-rw-r--r--    1 user     root         4096 Mar 30  2010 ._
It's a binary file, but I found strings in it such as:

Code:
Mac OS X
ATTR;
This resource fork intentionally left blank
Anyone know what it's for? Obviously, it is something to do with Mac, but files and directories named such obtuse things kinda creep me out, like someone is trying to hide something.

Thoughts?
