ResBuilder now ResEdit v2.10

[Wayne D]

"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.

New Features to ResEdit

icons. Take as many snapshots as you want. Restore your system icons from
a snapshot, at any time. Icon snapshots are fully compatible with
