Revolution has some commands for managing resources. I wrote a utility
stack for doing this which you are welcome to try
<http://www.troz.net/Rev/misc/ResourceCopier.rev.gz>. It's been a
while since I looked at it, so I don't know if there have been any
changes in recent version of Rev that might have affected it, but it
should give you some ideas anyway.
