pilrc is a resource compiler that is used with the gnu tools, and i think can be used
with codewarrior, not sure though since i dont use code warrior.. i sent an email
directly with pword.txt file..
here are the instructions on getting this to work though.
add this to your .rcp file
FONT pwdFnt FONTID 128 "pword.txt"
and this to your start app function
MemHandle fontHandle;
FontPtr font;
fontHandle = DmGetResource('NFNT', pwdFnt );
font = MemHandleLock ( fontHandle );
FntDefineFont ( 128, font );
MemHandleUnlock ( fontHandle );
and this where your initialze the field
FldSetFont ( fld, 128 );
oh yeah and dont forget to define pwdFnt to resource in number in your resource header.
