Basically: yes. Because round-tripping it is a bit of
a pain. For that matter, I still haven't actually gotten
the .r to turn back into a .rsrc yet ... it's mapped to
the Rez compiler, and I turned off the flag that said
to have "make" ignore it ... but it still doesn't compile.
Any tips here?
For that matter, would you mind posting your "MoreTypes.r"
file somewhere?
