-
- You register files by using the Resoure_Register SWI, providing the call with
- a pointer to a structure containing a set of files to put on ResourceFS. This
- is best done from a module.
-
- If people can wait a month or so (for me to get back to Cambridge - this is
- being posted from a BBC Master via modem!), then I can send people copies of
- my !MakeRes application - you just drag in the files you want, and it will save
- a relocatable module that puts them on ResourceFS for you.
-
- If I get several requests for the module before I return to Cambridge, I'll put
- it on the Newcastle Infoserver instead.
-
- A version that instead produces an object file containing functions to register
- and deregister the files is coming soon - this will allow files to be easily
- embedded in a module generated with cmhg.
