Dev-C++ (IDE for MinGW) supports resource files, it compiles them right,
through windres.exe. What Dev has not is a resource editor, so you have
to create your dialog templates and such things that come in that files
by hand (is this correct english?), from scratch. If you want a resource
editor as the one with Borland or MSVisual, you can download the
resource editor for Win-LCC. You can find it at
http://www.objectcentral.com (I'm not sure about the domain extension,
perhaps it is org). You can then use it producing the header files and
the text resource files (those which have the .rc extension) and add
them to your dev project.
