A resource is anything that Yzis needs to load at runtime.

There is a good description of the resource mecanism in the api doc: [http://labs.freehackers.org/embedded/yzis/libyzis/resourcemgr_8h.html YZResourceMgr.h]

I am going to repeat part of the doc here.

There are different types of resource types:
* UserScriptResource: 	A script file run by user (eg: ":source " ).
* ConfigScriptResource:	A script file run automatically by yzis (eg: hl.lua).
* IndentResource:  	A file managing indentation (script file).
* SyntaxHlResource: 	A file managing syntax highlighting (xml file).
* ConfigResource: 	A config file.
* WritableConfigResource: A config file writeable by yzis (yzisinfo, hl.lua)

Each resource is looked up in different directories, in the following order:
* current directories: only for UserScriptResource
* [User Home]/.yzis
* $YZISHOME
* [Installation Dir]/share/yzis

Some of the resources are looked up in specific subdirectories. Here an example of where you would be able to find files:
* UserScriptResource: 
**  ./some_file.lua
**  ~/.yzis/scripts/some_file.lua
**  $YZISHOME/scripts/some_file.lua
**  [PREFIX]/share/yzis/scripts/some_file.lua

* ConfigScriptResource:
**  ~/.yzis/scripts/some_file.lua
**  $YZISHOME/scripts/some_file.lua
**  [PREFIX]/share/yzis/scripts/some_file.lua

* IndentResource:
**  ~/.yzis/indent/some_indent_file.lua
**  $YZISHOME/indent/some_indent_file.lua
**  [PREFIX]/share/yzis/indent/some_indent_file.lua

* SyntaxHlResource:
**  ~/.yzis/syntax/some_indent_file.xml
**  $YZISHOME/syntax/some_syntax_file.xml
**  [PREFIX]/share/yzis/syntax/some_indent_file.xml

* ConfigResource:
**  ~/.yzis/some_config_file 
**  $YZISHOME/some_config_file
**  [PREFIX]/share/yzis/some_config_file

* WritableConfigResource:
**  ~/.yzis/some_writeable_config_file 
**  $YZISHOME/some_writeable_config_file
**  [PREFIX]/share/yzis/some_writeable_config_file
