@diodelass MAC OS CLASSIC: the type and creator codes are both ???? because you imported this from a cursed filesystem that has not seen the light of metadata, this heretical file must not be opened until it has been blessed by File Exchange or ResEdit
(and to be fair, Acorn's own hardware for the most part used a Mini-DIN 9 connector and their own pinout for a quadrature 3-button mouse, so you were forced to buy 3-button mice, it's just the modern era where this is a problem)
