The "Macintosh Bible" says you should never ever, under any circumstances,
even consider using ResEdit while under Multifinder.  Why?  Do they really
mean "don't edit the desktop"?  I edit (normal) resource files all the
time under Multifinder with no problems.  The book isn't too clear on this
point (I guess they figure that people who use ResEdit day-to-day won't
be reading the "Macintosh Bible").  What's the scoop?
