Hi,

When PC discs on RISC OS first came out, the RISC OS file system used spare bits in the DOS file system. Possibly later Microsoft used those bits.

Maybe when people did file systems that added the RISC OS type to the file name they could have added the permissions.

Zip files get the RISC OS access bits correct...
