Lilianne E. Blaze wants to merge 1 commit from /u/lilianne-blaze/lbfork-launch4j/ to master, 2024-01-11

Temporary .rc files can't be processed by Resource Hacker.
Turned out the culprits were missing endline and a an unrecognized keyword.

After applying this patch everything works.

According to this "DISCARDABLE" is only used in 16-bit Windows, so I'm guessing newer tools may fail to recognize it.

Yes, I am aware it doesn't affect normal builds, but it can cause problems with forks that use other tools to process these files. For example I'm working on a fork that allows taking an existing exe and then merging it with .res file generated by Launch4j, for which I need compatibility with above mentioned Resource Hacker
