Right. The only reason to use separate files is to switch to a
fundamentally different format like .strings or .nib files, or
perhaps if you wanted to segregate your Resource Manager
resources into a couple of different files for some reason.
(I've never heard of anyone doing this, but you never know.)
Because of the 2727 limit on the number of resources the
Resource Manager can handle, a number of applications like
PageMaker and Finale have had to split up their resource forks
into two or three different files. This technique is also used
for localized strings and special beta tester resource files
with bug reporting facilities.
