Ok, I understand that Viktor ... but I speak not to change the hbmk2
to insert it these resources, because hbmk2 did not need this. I speak
from hbIDE give me a field for me to customize these actions on my
project. So I can work on my CPU in "Debug Mode" and when  I finished,
I compile in "Release mode" and her call my batch file that compress
my app with custom software (not UPX) and send it via FTP or do other
things that I consider important.
