If RB has found a way to coerce the Windows OS into handling resource forks I'd be interested in learning more.

Its nothing too exciting.  Visual Studio employs the same method.  You
have resource file foo.res.  After compilation you link foo.res into the
main executable.  :)

IF Visual Studio does it, we're talking about a different animal: while resource *files* are common on other systems, only Mac OS has a dual file system which supports a resource *fork*:

To make a Mac Classic application on any other OS will require some additional step done on a Mac to make it run.

Fortunately it won't matter much longer: the MacTels are almost here, so the days of Classic are numbered....
