Resource files obey the following lexical conventions:
Whitespace, except when enclosed in quotes for strings, is ignored by the compiler.
Both C-style (/* */) and C++-style (//) comments are supported.
Strings must be enclosed with double-quotes.
To include a double-quote within a string, enter a double-quote preceded by a backslash. The following resource:
RESOURCE SIMPLE quote_example { string="\"text\""; }
where string is of type BUF, generates the output string "text".
To include a backslash within a string, enter two backslash characters. The following resource:
RESOURCE SIMPLE backslash_example { string="\\text\\"; }
generates the output string \text\.
You can use the syntax number, to specify a character by character code. If a Unicode resource is being created, this must be a Unicode character value.
