"Delete Me" file? What does this serve? (GOG versions, Mac)


Recommended Posts

I've been playing the original Avernum saga. As some people may know, the version of Wine used in the GOG Mac versions of 1 and 3 is incorrect, so I adjusted the version to the correct version... but after doing so, I noticed a peculiar file.

 

If you go to the application for 1, 2 or 3, right click and choose to Show Package Contents, and go to Contents > Resources > game, you'll find a file titled "!_delete_me". It's just a 10 byte document with the sentence "Delete Me!".

 

I'm just curious; why did they leave this in here? Does anything change if you delete it?

 

EDIT: Found a second one in the Contents > Documents folder for each game. Huh.
