[M3devel] FW: winRes.tmpl/mingw/rc/windres/etc.

[Jay]

I think this code should be moved into the config files. ?
All non-Windows config files would just say:
 
readonly proc WindowsResource (file) isendand then NT386.common would have the current content of winRes.tmpl.
 
Thoughts?
 
More so, cm3.exe should just implement
proc WindowsResource (file) isend
without readonly, and then NT386.common can replace it.
The others can leave it alone.
 
Thoughts?
 
I'm not really sure what should be "core" vs. what should be "an extension".
It is nice to have such an extensible system, but it can also be bad.
 
 
Besides that, Windows has a nice feature called "version resources".
If nothing else, every .dll/.exe should have one.
cm3 should give everyone some default.
imho.
