I thought I would add a tiny bit to the discussion of converting RMaker
resources to Rez format...

When you derez your application for the first time, be sure to skip the
code resources.  Basically, your command line should look something like
this:

	DeRez Application -s CODE Types.r SysTypes.r > Application.r

In your makefile, you'll want to have some lines such as:

Application	ff	Application.r
	Rez Types.r SysTypes.r Application.r -o Application -append

Now, whenever you change the resource text file, the resources will
automatically get Rez'd into the application.  Note that the ff characters
are special Macintosh characters (option-F).

Adios,
