Here's a few questions for the GEM gurus...

     I'm writing a TSR that is going to use GEM and a resource that will
be compiled as part of the program.  It is going to be activated by 
exceptions.

     Question 1...

     Since I won't be using rsrc_load() to load the resource, how do I tell
GEM to initialize my resource.  I've never used resources in this manner
before.  Essentially, how do I use my resource?  I'm using Laser C Ver 2.?
and RCP 3.0.  I have created the resource and had RCP create the .C and .H
files for me.  The only thing in the .C file is a large unsigned char array.

     Question 2...

     How do I calculate the number of bytes that the program requires to pass
to the Ptermres() function.

     Last question...

     I assume that even though this is going to be a TSR, I still need to
make a call to appl_init().  But what about appl_exit()?  I have a feeling
that I'll never use this function.

Thanks in advance!  :-)
