Does anyone know a relatively easy way to do "revert" when using the
Resource Manager?  That is, if one changes the map, changes the data,
removes a resource or two (in memory), is there way to force the closing
of the resource file without it being updated?  Then reopenning the file
would result in loading the original data before the changes were made.
I think a look at SetResFileAttrs() might be the key but I'm not sure.
Any help would be much appreciated. The reason I ask is, I'm writing a
program which deals with resource files like ResEdit does.  It's not
that I hate the Data Fork, just that I need to use the resource format.
