no can do.  I just opened Pyro! with Resedit, and then opened the Control
Panel.  After clicking on the Pyro! ICON, CPanel returned 'CPanel cannot load
resource file'.  closing in Resedit reenabled Pyro!.

Usually, you would want the helper file in a complete different file from the
cdev anyway; that way, if someone needs to free up some space, they can chuck
the help file.
