:I have been playing around with the demo of Resource (from Fish disk
: #232).

        Fun, eh?

:There are many features. Unfortunately, one of the features is very
: poor documentation.

   Look around on local BBSs. There was a version here which had almost
 the same docs as is in the booklet of the commercial version.

:I have a line of code that looks something like this:
:      MOVE.L   A6,$0320(A4)
:A4 has been loaded previously.
:What I want to do is replace the "$0320" with a symbol, which I have
:been able to do. However, I want to replace ALL occurances of
:"$0320(A$)" with "Symbol(A4)" in the code.
:I have not been able to figure out how to do this.

    Go into the <*> Menu, the <Convert xx(A4) EA's> MenuItem, then the
 <Specify> SubMenuItem. This will prompt you for the offset of A4 from
 ProgStart. This works as long as A4 is set to an address ReSource
 can see, ie a BSS or DATA hunk.
    If A4 is set to the base of some AllocMem'ed area, you're
 out of luck. The best you can do then is set up a couple of macros
 to do the substitutions least painfully.
    BTW. I got a notice from the PuzzleFactory last week that Version
 4.0 was now available. [Send in disk + US$25]
