\&\fBwindres\fR reads resources from an input file and copies them into

an output file. Either file may be in one of three formats:
|

|

.ie n .IP """rc""" 4
|
||
|

|

|

|
||

.el .IP "\f(CWcoff\fR" 4
|

.IX Item "coff"
|
||
|
|
A \s-1COFF\s0 object or executable.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
The exact description of these different formats is available in
|
||
|
|
documentation from Microsoft.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
When \fBwindres\fR converts from the \f(CW\*(C`rc\*(C'\fR format to the \f(CW\*(C`res\*(C'\fR
|
||
|
|
format, it is acting like the Windows Resource Compiler. When
|
||
|
|
\&\fBwindres\fR converts from the \f(CW\*(C`res\*(C'\fR format to the \f(CW\*(C`coff\*(C'\fR
|
||
|
|
format, it is acting like the Windows \f(CW\*(C`CVTRES\*(C'\fR program.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
When \fBwindres\fR generates an \f(CW\*(C`rc\*(C'\fR file, the output is similar
|
||
|
|
but not identical to the format expected for the input. When an input
|
||
|
|
\&\f(CW\*(C`rc\*(C'\fR file refers to an external filename, an output \f(CW\*(C`rc\*(C'\fR file
|
||
|
|
will instead include the file contents.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
If the input or output format is not specified, \fBwindres\fR will
|
||
|
|
guess based on the file name, or, for the input file, the file contents.
|
||
|
|
A file with an extension of \fI.rc\fR will be treated as an \f(CW\*(C`rc\*(C'\fR
|
||
|
|
file, a file with an extension of \fI.res\fR will be treated as a
|
||
|
|
\&\f(CW\*(C`res\*(C'\fR file, and a file with an extension of \fI.o\fR or
|
||
|
|
\&\fI.exe\fR will be treated as a \f(CW\*(C`coff\*(C'\fR file.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
If no output file is specified, \fBwindres\fR will print the resources
|
||
|
|
in \f(CW\*(C`rc\*(C'\fR format to standard output.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
The normal use is for you to write an \f(CW\*(C`rc\*(C'\fR file, use \fBwindres\fR
|
||
|
|
to convert it to a \s-1COFF\s0 object file, and then link the \s-1COFF\s0 file into
|
||
|
|
your application. This will make the resources described in the
|
||
|
|
\&\f(CW\*(C`rc\*(C'\fR file available to Windows.

Specify the default language to use when reading an \f(CW\*(C`rc\*(C'\fR file.
|
||
|
|
\&\fIval\fR should be a hexadecimal language code. The low eight bits are
|
||
|
|
the language, and the high eight bits are the sublanguage.

.IX Item "--use-temp-file"
|

|
|
Use a temporary file to instead of using popen to read the output of
|
||
|
|
the preprocessor. Use this option if the popen implementation is buggy
|
||
|
|
on the host (eg., certain non-English language versions of Windows 95 and
|
||
|
|
Windows 98 are known to have buggy popen where the output will instead
|
||
|
|
go the console).

.IP "\fB\-\-no\-use\-temp\-file\fR" 4

.IX Item "--no-use-temp-file"
|

|
|
Use popen, not a temporary file, to read the output of the preprocessor.
|

|
|
This is the default behaviour.

If \fBwindres\fR is compiled with \f(CW\*(C`YYDEBUG\*(C'\fR defined as \f(CW1\fR,
|

this will turn on parser debugging.

.IX Item "@file"
|

Read command-line options from \fIfile\fR. The options read are
|
||
|
|
inserted in place of the original @\fIfile\fR option. If \fIfile\fR
|
||
|
|
does not exist, or cannot be read, then the option will be treated
|
||
|
|
literally, and not removed.
|
||
|
|
.Sp
|
||
|
|
Options in \fIfile\fR are separated by whitespace. A whitespace
|
||
|
|
character may be included in an option by surrounding the entire
|
||
|
|
option in either single or double quotes. Any character (including a
|
||
|
|
backslash) may be included by prefixing the character to be included
|
||
|
|
with a backslash. The \fIfile\fR may itself contain additional
|
||
|
|
@\fIfile\fR options; any such options will be processed recursively.
