RES editor for PowKiddy firmware

What is the purpose of this project ?

RES files are used in Powkiddy consoles running µCO/S-II (mainly X16). These files are used to store images that will be used by the applications, like the launcher for example. The main purpose of this project is to be able to view and replace the images located in these RES files.

Please report any bug you find.

How to use it ?

It has been developed using C++ and Qt framework and Qt Creator. Simply import .pro file in Qt Creator to be able to compile and execute the whole project. It has only been tested on Linux (Ubuntu 14.04).

Any dependency ?

YES, zlib is necessary to DEFLATE some parts of the RES file.
