Detailed Description

A data resource stores user data in the dat file.

Kyra does not use or interact with these resources.

When text is loaded into the resource, it will be stored as one long newline seperated null terminated string. (The newline termination is not effected by encoding or reading OS).

IMPORTANT: This is unrelated to the KrFontResource, which is used to display KrTextBox's. This is a collection of user defined text data.

See also class KrBinaryDataResource.

See the HTML docs for an example of how to encode user resources.
