- So, why the Amiga doesn't have "resources" ? :-)
-
- How nice would it be to have my favorite softwares with menus translated into
- french (for example...), with my own file requester geometry...
-
- I thought of using the .info files (to find them some utility at least), or a new
- hunk type in the executable file ?
-
- The main idea with "resources" is to separate international/customizable datas
- from the code itself. Not a bad thing if you consider the "forget-all-you-know"
- philosophy of every new program on the Amiga :-).
-
- To be clear: yes, there is an existing Resedit on the Amiga: your favorite hex
- dump utility.
