[Pythoncard-users] Re: platform-specific resource files now supported

[Michael S. <mik...@ya...>]

The topic of platform-specific resource files made me
wonder whether it is possible for a resource file to
inherit from another resource file. If the differences
between platform specific resources are relatively
minor, I would think it would be simpler to inherit
from a base resource and only include the components
and properties to be changed.

On a different topic, could someone remind me of the
reasons why components are accessed from
self.components rather than self? 
E.g. self.components.button1 vs. self.button1
If I allowed self to lookup self.components would this
cause a problem with the program? I think I remember
there being some discussion on this in the past, but I
cannot find it in the archive.

Thanks,

Michael
