Yo, Skye --
Per your original request on this topic, I took a
quick look in some Utilities directories, and I found
the following (in addition to PMTREE and THESEUS),
ReadMe files herein excerpted, though I don't know if
any of these may be appropriate, and all except the
latter are quite old:
---------------------------------------------------
ExeDump 1.00, Copyright 1989 Claus Munk [72451,2262]
Usage: exedump [-xn] [-p] [-q] exefile
-p means that the display pauses for each screenfull
of data.
-q suppresses normal output (use together with -x)
-xn designates that the resources with type ID n
shall
be dumped to seperate files.
The following types are known at the moment:
ID Type FileExtension
1 CURSOR .CUR
2 BITMAP .BMP
3 ICON .ICO
4 MENU .MNU
5 DIALOG .DLG
6 STRING .STR
7 FONTDIR .DIR
8 FNT .FNT
9 ACCEL .ACC
--------------------------------------------------------------
RDB
Resource DLL Browser
As you may know there are possible to have resources
like icons, bitmaps,
pointers, menus etc. in a data-only .DLL that thereby
may be shared
between applications.
Although not yet widespread I believe that this is a
nice thing. Also, in
VACPP it is beginning to be more used (in the builder,
also check out ABTICONS.DLL)
and there are also smarties for it.
I wanted to be able to see the icons and bitmaps
inside such a DLL and
to find out the id's by which they are known. To my
knowledge there are
none available so, I made my own.
To, in some way, promote OS/2 programming I want to
share it with you guys.
So, here you have, it's free for the usage. Comments
are welcome at my adresses.

As usual, I am not responsible for anything that
eventualy could
go wrong by using this program. If you use it, it's
your own risk.
Also, I have included some test source to create a
resource DLL.
To get at it inside a program You should do like:
if( (rc = DosLoadModule( NULL, 0, szModuleName,
&hModule))) {
return 0;
}
hptrIcon = WinLoadPointer( HWND_DESKTOP, hModule,
id);
// and for bitmaps.
hps = WinGetPS( hwnd);
hbm = GpiLoadBitmap( hps, hModule, someotherid, 0,
0);
WinReleasePS( hps);
DosFreeModule( module);
Hope you have use for it.
Best regards
