FAQ

Question 1. What is "Risoh"?

The word "risoh" means "ideal" in Japanese.

Question 2. What are edt1, edt2, cmb1?

Those are standard control ID macros defined in <dlgs.h>.

Question 3. What is mcdx?

It's a special message compiler I made. See mcdx/MESSAGETABLEDX.md for details.

Question 4. Why did I get garbled characters when compiling with Visual Studio?

rc.exe correctly supports UTF-16, but prior to Visual Studio 2022, loading a UTF-8 file will result in garbage in the output data.

Please use Visual Studio 2022 or later.

Question 5. What is the difference between no installer and portable version?

The portable version doesn't use registry but an ini file.

Question 6. Does it support 64-bit?

Yes, it does.

Question 7. What is WonRes?

It's my Win32 resource data manipulator. It can load and save resource data and has encryption and decryption feature.
