- Huh? Did I miss a newer version of Genesys? I've got version 1.2.2
- and it doesn't handle rVersion resources (or anything defined for System 6).
- I know they completed a version 1.2.4, but they never offered an update
- to it I don't think. SSSi seems to be in shambles unfornately. Rez can
- do rVersions also, but then it'll do anything of course.

- Um, technote 76 and 100 cover it somewhat. Toolbox volume 3 has a better
- reference for it.
