Title: New Open Watcom WRC.EXE to replace IBM's RC.EXE
Post by: DavidG on 2008.01.28, 23:21:50
For anyone interested>

Steven Levine has reworked the Open Watcom WRC.EXE so that one no longer needs IBM's rc.exe and the IBM Toolkit to build.

With this wrc.exe, all one needs is the latest Open Watcom.  This came about because the FM/2 project wanted to move away from VAC and RC.EXE dependancy on the IBM toolkit.

While I have always had problems building with the IBM RC's, his wrc.exe appears to work good.  FM/2 builds without any problems using it.

It can be found here.
