Some info on FB resource *.rc files ?

Hi all,

I've found a few references to 'resource file scripts' ( *.rc files).
However I've found scant info on this on the net/ FB wiki.

I know it can be used to create custom icons for the .exe files, etc, but the info is scattered.

Can one point out some links that explain how to create/use this .rc file ?

Thanks,

--Royce

*.rc files are not part of the FB system but are associated with the Microsoft Resource Compiler which uses script files with an rc extension. Search the MS website for specific information.

The Microsoft documentation is here.

FBC uses Jeremy Gordon’s GoRC resource compiler, and the documentation for it is available here.
