a couple post-compliling problems

[Saad85]

i'll make it short and to the point.


first:

turing is ugly. exceedingly so. the post-compiling logo and stuff kinda destroys the whole look i'm going for. is there any way to fix up what my window looks like? i would like to change its icon, name, etc.


second:

my program uses an external picture, which is essential. is there any way to bundle this pic into the .exe or something similar, other than just handling them together (same archive) or using the windows program-installer utility to bundle it (waaaaaaaaaayyyy overkill)

The only real way would be to look into the Resource Hacker.

Best you could hope for is using WinZip or similar to create a self-extracting executable. Sure it may not be the perfect solution, but hey, at least there's no true archives involved .

if you dont want to use Resource Hacker, there's another program that does basicly the same thing. its called XN Resource Editor. try if you want.
