I'm trying to determine as painlessly as possible, the true creator of a
file. I thought that using finfo (especially as MANAGE.SYS) would be the way
to go. However here's what I'm finding:

[MGR.SDL]  BUILD FOO
[MGR.SDL]  LISTF FOO,-1
...
display indicates that MGR     SDL created the file
[MGR.SDL]  calc finfo("foo.pub.sdl","creator")
MGR    (note no SDL anywhere)

now let's get a little more creative:

[MANAGER.SYS] BUILD BAR.PUB.SDL
[MANAGER.SYS] LISTF BAR.PUB.SDL, -1
...
display indicates that MANAGER SYS created the file.
[MANAGER.SYS] calc finfo("bar.pub.sdl","creator")

no value returned. It gets even more snarrly, when we try:

[MGR.SDL] calc finfo("BAR.PUB.SDL","creator")

and we still end up with a blank!

Help!
What's going on, who is that mysterious masked file creator?
