IncludeLibrary "filename.pbi"
Like the IncludeFile / XIncludeFile command but,
- only the ProcedureDLL are recognized from the caller source.
- same rules/behaviour as the 'Windows DLL' compiler directive.
IncludeResident "filename.pbi"
- Same but for including only the Constants and Macros.
This might be useful for making 'cleaner' includes, wrappers and such.

or maybe - in a different way :
IncludeLibrary "filename.lib"
IncludeResident "filename.res"

Honestly, imho the res files do got their purpose to be auto loaded when starting PB. But your purpose is to include them individually projectbased.
So a common include file containing Structures/Constants etc. could be/is enough?
IncludeLibrary "filename.lib"
Thats already the job of "Import/EndImport" which works ok - well if all which has to be linked also is present
Quintessence: I think you cant wait (me also) for a final official release of Tailbite supporting v4 ?

Resource files can already be included on a per-project basis via compiler options, no?
From the manual:
"Resources
Here you can include as many Resource scripts (*.rc files) as you want. They will be compiled and included with the executable. You can use any resource editor (for example the PellesC IDE) to create such scripts.
Note: Since Resources are a specific to the Windows platform only, PB does not include a Library to manage them and they are not further documented here. See documentation on the Windows API and resources for more information."
Import/EndImport works with .lib files, but I'm not sure if they statically linked or not. (Wish they were!)

You can use ResourceScripts *.rc in Compileroptions.
You can use compiled Resources *.res with Import, also *lib, *.obj
This is statically linked to your executable or dll

this idea is great and I'd love to have these features in PB ^^
