Quite the reverse in fact: it would be harder.
There is pretty much a one to one mapping between PilRC code and the
resources actually present in a .prc application.
On the other hand, .rsrc files contain intermediate things like 'MENU'
and 'tBTN' et al. resources (see the Constructor manual) which are compiled
by PalmRez into the 'MBAR' and 'tFRM' resources actually used by Palm OS.
Rather than duplicate that work, it seems easier just to take advantage
of it. :-)
