Eek! It really scares me to hear two developers whose opinions I respect say things like this.
For this area, I feel that a text-based format is so inherently superior that I honestly can't imagine why anyone is still using Constructor.
Well I suppose it is what you are used to, but I haven't messed with a text based resource list since the early days of Win 3.1, and I pretty soon migrated to GUI tools to replace having to do that (thanks Borland!)
You mean to thank the Whitewater Group, later eaten by Borland (<rant>who killed the wonderful Actor language just to get hold of the Resource Toolkit</rant>). Just needed to get that off my chest, it still hurts after all these years. ;-)
Just to keep on topic, I agree with you Roger, GUI tools make our days so much easier.
