With ResEdit, skin/logon/shellstyle designers have a simple way to alter
alpha mask bitmaps in a resource file. ResEdit auto-converts 32 bit BMPs to
PNGs and back so you can edit the 8 bit alpha mask in your favorite editor. Good
for LogonUI.EXE files. Also has a text and hex editor.
Now with support for Adding and Deleting Resources. Using the new
Resource feature authors can create resource only files
that can be used as icon sets or localization dlls. Cursor groups and Icon
groups now supported. Using colorize you can color all images in a
file, all images of a type, all images in a group, or just a single image.
Edit and insert String tables for multiple languages. And the ability to update
version info.
