Hi friends,
You can add compiled resource scripts to the executables assembled with Fasm.The method is based on using a free resource linker (6.5Kb.) from the Sphinx C-- website. 1)First,you add an "empty" resource section to the end of your source file,this provides enough room for the resource section in the PE object table: Code:
section '.rsrc' resource data readable
2)Assemble the source file. 3)You delete the resource section body and add the compiled resource file(.res) to the executable.This trick of "removing the resource section" is required;otherwise the executable will not run on Win XP: Code: rl menu.exe /d rl menu.exe rsrc.res /a The advantage of this method that you can use directly all your resource scripts with Fasm,just enough to have the final compiled resource file (.res) Another advantage;you don't need of .obj files. A very usefull and free resource editor available from Hutch's homepage: http://www.movsd.com/download/nre.exe The free resource linker (included in the attachment): http://sheker.chat.ru/rl.zip

I just put the blank resource section to the last and use ResourceEditor and PEditor to edit (easy to expand in the future).

Aquila: that might not work because resource data contains some RVA addresses and these can be changed when you place your resource section in some other place of file.

Aquila,
Have you tried Resource Hacker? Quote:

Hi friends,
Another method of embedding resources is to read binary resource data bytes from a .res file. This is equivalent to a dialog box template in memory. Code: pDlgbox FILE 'Rsrc.res' : 50h ;Skip the header to read directly binary resource data This trick appears to be O.K for simple dialog box resources. Without the resource section, the size of the final executable drops down by 512 bytes.
