Historic

V 1.0 : October 29th 1998. First public release

V 2.0 : November 23rd 1998 : As well as the RSC compiler, the program is much quicker and safer now : it works in a dynamically allocated space of the memory. The changes are only saved only in the memory during a session and you can save the whole file after all your modifications. This editor now uses the special syntax of RSCcompiler (\$nnn\) in the dEDITMULTI dialog so that you won't alter the special characters or will be able to add some if needed ; this special character feature was also added to the searcch string function.

V 2.01 : November 30th 1998 : fixed a bug in resource lengh recalculation when modifying some special characters in the strings. Saving the string now jumps also to next record.

V 2.1 : January 1999 : added the resource name statement display. The program now handles the files with size over 16kb.

How it works

This program takes an rsc file as argument and allows you to edit it. Changes can be applied to long integers and "standard" strings.

Warning : rsc files edited and changed with RSC editor are liable to be unusable with some commercial programs or EPOC32 inbuilt applications resource files : that's because rsc files can contain strings and long integers but also many other complex resources such as buffers, arrays, ... you can partially view the content of such resources but musn't try to change the resources that contain strange characters that you do not understand : only change the simple texts ! However, with the latest changes on version 2.0, special characters can be added or modified safely.
