- !Resources
- ==========
-
- !Resources is for all Acorn 32 bit machines with RiscOS 3. It allows you to
- add files to the ROM Resources filer. The application creates a module which
- may be loaded up to insert the desired files into anywhere in the Resource
- filing system.
-
-
- How to make it work?
- ====================
-
- Double click on the !Resources icon. The program will need 112k. When the
- !Resources icon appears on the icon bar click on it. A window will pop up
- with 1 module icon and 4 ROM Apps icons. Firstly drag the desired file to go
- into the Resource filer on to one of the ROM Apps icons or onto one of the
- white boxes underneath the word 'File'. The file will appear in the white
- box. Then drag the ROM apps icon from this window to a directory in the
- Resource filer. You may do this with three other files. Then fill in the box
- which is labelled 'Module name :-' if you wish to change the module name
- from 'ResFiles' allowing you to have more modules running at the same time.
- Drag the module icon at the top of the window to a disc to save the module.
-
- Holding down Alt then clicking on a white box will clear its contents. Any
- pair of boxes with one box which is not filled in will not be included in
- the module.

- Hints on how to make the best use of this program
- =================================================
-
- There is only enough space for 4 files so to make the best use of this if
- you wish to put more files into the Resource filer is to
- a) Carefully arrange all your files in to a directory on a disk and then
- drop this into a slot in the window or...
- b) Use the icon at the bottom of the window to make modules with different
- names each time (i.e. mod1, mod2 etc.) and to save them to disk with a
- different name by altering the icon at the top (e.g. ResFS1, ResFS2 etc.).
-
- The application can only create modules with a total file space of the
- amount of memory free on your computer so if you wish to put a large
- file/application in to the Resource filer make sure you have adequate memory
- to make your module. If the program runs out of memory it will simply stop
- the process and create a module with the files it has already created in the
- module.
