I've just gotten K-Resource, a resource construction set put out
by Kuma (for lack of cooperation by Atari UK when I enquired about
the developer's kit some months ago -- note, Atari, don't try to
sell me one now, I've already spent the 400 quid on substitutes).

As an RCS, it looks fine (though they could do with hiring a
tech writer, a tech editor, and a photo-composition expert for their
docs).  However all it makes is the completed resource 'object',
and the header (C .h) file (in a choice of 4 languages, of which
C is all I recall, cause it's all that interests me).

This would seem to rule out my use of RCSFIX technology, as you
don't get a 'source' for the .rsc file.  Anyone out there have a
tool that will convert a .rsc 'object' file into a C source file
for same?  Or a description of the .rsc structure in terms that
I could use to make a C-source generator with?
