Hi Nikolay,

I'm not aware of anybody other than Microsoft who's done anything more than
play with this - presumably because there was a reluctance amongst developers
for so long to introduce a dependency on Vista.

MSVC comes with a utility muirct.exe to generate these -
see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/intl/resource-utilities.

Probably also worth pointing out that the post-XP theming engine relies on
MUI (i.e. aero.msstyles), so this would be a prerequisite for modern theming
in Wine.
