>I see no advantage [in including RSC files]
first, you will not have to move around two files.  Second, you can execute
the program from anywhere - try using an installed application if your .prg
and .rsc are on another partition on the hard disk from the application (There
is a way of getting around this).  RSC files take more space and load time
than when they are merged.  Some programs maintain two large .rsc files, one
for monochrome, one for color, when only a few parts have to be duplicated.
