Hello,
I search if cvtres.exe accept an environment variable like:
set CVTRES=/MACHINE:X64
I don't find this in MSDN

Quoteset $cvtres=/machine:x64

Create a normal environment variable who is not read by cvtres as link do with LINK

Quoteset LINK= /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS

Link.exe /DEBUG /debugtype:cv /OUT:%FILE%.exe *.obj
There is no need to add %LINK% in the command line

Yep, that's the right spirit, Yves :t

(in case Bill is too busy, you can still use cvtres whatever %$cvtres% as a workaround)
