Say you like to collect MacOS classic icons. Say you've collected a lot of them, probably in several files because you can't have more than 2727 resources in a single one[*] and also want a semblance of order. Now you want to know if you have any duplicates in your collection, so you can delete them.

That's why this tool exists. It looks for duplicates in one or several resource files, lists them and optionally deletes them.

[*] You can cram in slightly over 5400, but then ResEdit seems to randomly delete resources when pasting more.

Drafted, because readability of output needs to be improved
