For GS/OS applications and shell EXE files (types $B3 and $B5), the
last digit of the auxiliary type is defined on a bit-by-bit basis.
The high byte must be $DB, or the low byte is invalid.
Bit 0 means the application is GS/OS aware, in that it uses prefix
numbers 8 and higher, rather than the ProDOS-16 prefixes (0 through
7), and can cope with long pathnames.
Bit 1 means it is a desktop application, and is able to cope with the
super hi-res screen being active when the program starts up (or the
text screen, for that matter).
Bit 2 means it is "message aware" - it uses the pathname message
supplied by Finder when you launch an application by double-clicking a
document (or selecting the document then using the Open or Print
command).
Thus, the valid auxiliary types are:
Message aware Desktop app GS/OS aware
$DB00 No No No
$DB01 No No Yes
$DB02 No Yes No
$DB03 No Yes Yes
$DB04 Yes No No
$DB05 Yes No Yes
$DB06 Yes Yes No
$DB07 Yes Yes Yes
