Hi all!
I want to use icons and other resources in my win32 program. Is it
possible to compile and use .res files in Cygwin/mingw32? Or maybe
there's another way for embedding resources into exe? Thanks for help!

Use windres to compile the resource file:
windres -i foo.rc -o foo.o
Then just include the .o file in the link step along with the rest of
the modules. (Native Windows compilers use a .res file as an
intermediate step between .rc and .obj; this isn't needed with Cygwin's
windres.)
