I am in the process of writing a CDEV/INIT combination. The CDEV will be 
used to select various modules to run (like Pyro! or After Dark) and set 
some general parameters. I'm not quite sure how to pass the information 
to the INIT. My best guess now is that I should store the data in a 
resource in the INIT/CDEV and then call something like OpenResFile() to 
get the newests info and the code for the module to run (each module 
would be stored in its own distinct code-type resource). Is this the 
best way to go? Are there any articles on this or similar subjects 
(modifying the way an INIT runs during the current session)?
 
Thanks,
