I found useful info under 'Bundles and the Resource Manager' in XCode
Documentation.
My app has two files in the 'Build ResourceManager Resources' build
phase in my target: a .r file and a .rsrc file, with the same name as my
app. This gets the resource file built and installed in the app bundle:
the .r gets compiled and merged with the .rsrc file.
I converted that .rsrc file to data-fork using Resorcerer's 'Save As'
command, maybe it was necessary for the resmerge to work right, can't
recall.
All my old code now just works. Except where I accidentally tried to
modify a resource in memory: file mapping is in use and the resources
are in read-only pages! I didn't want to be modifying that resource, it
was a bug, so it's fine that it got caught after all these years.
