RES2DLG V1.2
by
Paul Ratcliffe
(c) Feb. 2001
This is a utility to decompile an OS/2 .RES resource file into a .DLG
dialog file. This utility preserves all styles, unlike the IBM Dialog
Editor tool. The program is freeware and as such:
USE OF THIS PROGRAM IS ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK.
OPERATION
RES2DLG take 1 or 2 command line parameters. The first one is the name of
the .RES file you wish to decompile. The optional second one is the name of
the .DLG file you wish to output to. If this is not given, all output is
written to the standard output destination.
The resulting .DLG file should be capable of being fed back into the IBM
Resource Compiler (RC.EXE) without modification to get back your original
.RES file assuming it only contained dialogs - no other resource types are
supported by RES2DLG.
The excellent RESMGR Resource Decompiler/Manager package by Martin Lafaix
should by used if you wish to decompile non-dialog resources.
