You register files by using the Resoure_Register SWI, providing the call with
a pointer to a structure containing a set of files to put on ResourceFS. This
is best done from a module.

If people can wait a month or so (for me to get back to Cambridge - this is
being posted from a BBC Master via modem!), then I can send people copies of
my !MakeRes application - you just drag in the files you want, and it will save
a relocatable module that puts them on ResourceFS for you.

If I get several requests for the module before I return to Cambridge, I'll put
it on the Newcastle Infoserver instead.

A version that instead produces an object file containing functions to register
and deregister the files is coming soon - this will allow files to be easily
embedded in a module generated with cmhg.
