I am pretty new to this language and I was trying to compile an icon with the coding into an executive so i read up about using .rc resource files. I created a .rc file that represents the icon but now I'm kind of lost on how to combine it because i tried lcc-win32 compilier and it was very confusing for me.

and also,how can i code it so that a jpg is opened individually after u open the program?

sorry if this is confusing because i'm pretty much confused myself
