Yep, I caught that. I had also added it to rexxc.exe because I didn't
understand what it was for. That one can be removed.
Btw, I see ooDialog has a .exe file and a .com file. I think I've got
those building correctly, but I'm not sure I understand what the .com file
is for. I'm also adding the manifest to that one.
