Hi,
I am attempting to port a Microsoft C program to GNU C. All the menu
setup data is in a resource (.rc) file, which gcc can't compile, and
the linker can't deal with the .res file produced by Visual C
(unrecognized file format). Is there some (relatively) painless way to
convert this to a C file, or is there an equivalent to a resource
compiler in the GNU-WIN32 suite? Is the suggestion of using the
Microsoft linker pertinent here? A search of the FAQ, and (partial)
search of the mail archives revealed nothing useful.
Two notes: 1) I am new to GNU-WIN32 (but not gcc), and I am *very* new
to developing Windows applications (have done some X windows stuff
using Xforms).
Thanx,
Wilkey Richarson
