+Resource files (.rc/.res) are needed for MS Windows builds only.
+
+The .res file is the compiled version of .rc and appended to the
+executable. It is just used to provide an icon for the executable
+that is shown in the explorer.
+
+Delphi does the compilation of the .rc to .res file automatically.
+FPC needs windres (delivered with FPC) for ths purpose but windres
+must be started separately.
+
+You can manually run the compilation process with either
+ rccompile-delphi.bat or
+ rccompile-fpc.bat
+depending on the available compiler (delphi/windres files are compatible).
+
+If FPC is used, the path to the FPC bin-dir might have to be adjusted,
+the default is "PATH=C:\Programme\lazarus\fpc\2.2.0\bin\i386-win32\".
+
+To avoid the need to run the resource-compiler, a pre-compiled .res-file
+was added to SVN. Please commit the res-file if the rc-file was changed. \ No newline at end of file
