While true, this doesn't help with files created by a perl script, e.g.
with open F, '>xxx'. To control the type and creator of these you either
have to set them in the script (with MacPerl::SetFileInfo or one of the
Toolbox calls), or modify the default value, which is stored in the
"GUSI" (actually G-U-Sigma-I) resource in the MacPerl application.
