If so, what's the name of the command line tool to compile resources?
Or an example of use...
I have access to the Professional suite (both Linux and Windows environment but I'm interested mainly in the Windows one), thanks in advance.

rc.exe is used to compile resources, and it should be available in the Windows SDK which is free to download.
It doesn't make sense for Intel to provide a resource compiler because resources are just data.

I'm backing up Michael on this. Resources are their own language entirely seperate from C++, and they have their own compiler. I'm not sure why Intel would feel the need to write their own.
Not everything that comes bundled with VisualStudio is part of C++.
The Gnu folks have their own resource compiler (WindRes). I'm guessing the reason for that is that they don't like the license on RC.

Actually the object file format is identical and the object files generated by windres and RC are interchangeable.

Hmmm. Did some searching, and you are right Filip. I'll fix that part.
