Here is one method, though not too useful except in rare cases.

1) Build a PRC file using your .r file.
2) Open the PRC file in Constructor 1.6 from the Palm OS 4.0 SDK
3) Create a new project in constructor
4) Highlight all the resources in the PRC file, and drag them to the new
project window
5) Save the new project as a .rsrc file.

You will have to migrate application settings manually, but this should
get all the core resources copied into .rsrc form.
