Thanks, but that's only part of it. I want to work
with .r files -some- of the time, and the IDE form
builder other times. I want it all, in other words.
The docs refer to something called "DeRez" that is
supposed to decompile a resource db into the .r form,
but I don't see that anywhere. I did try the "Generate
Source" menu option from the IDE, but it didn't seem
to do anything.
Finally, assuming I can get DeRez question settled,
once I've edited & regenerated the resource (with Rez),
I want to be able to tweak it w/ the IDE based tool again.
Can this be done, or is the resource file generated by Rez
incompatible with the "native" resource file format
handled by the IDE?
(Perhaps next edition, your IDE form builder could
work w/ .r files instead of this binary format...)

In order to use .r files in CodeWarrior, you will need to do the following:
Add a new file mapping in the File Mappings pref panel of the Project
Settings. You need to set the file type to TEXT, all Flags off, .r extension
and the compiler to be used is Rez. Once this is done, you can use the .r
file in the project.
