-<p>You need to register your applications
-in order to make them visible to the application menu and to provide other
-information to the underlying system. To register, you need to provide a registration
-resource file, typically named <parmname>&lt;application_name&gt;_reg.rss</parmname>,
-that contains the non-localized information for your application. You also
-need to provide the <xref href="GUID-9F90A2F0-9C76-4871-A766-D1AE0FC42C08.dita">localizable
-registration information</xref>. The registration resource file is compiled
-during the build process and included in the <parmname>pkg</parmname> file
-used to make the <parmname>sis</parmname> installation file.</p>
-
-<p>To create a registration resource file:</p>
-<ol>

-</li>
-<li id="GUID-7EE5ADE9-C5D4-43E0-BB94-977CB064CF2D"><p>Include the
-appropriate header files. Typically, you need to include the following files:</p>
-<itemgroup>
-<ul>
-<li><p><parmname>appinfo.rh</parmname>, which is the resource header
-file that includes the data structure declaration for the resource statement
-used in the registration resource file.</p></li>
-<li><p>compiled resource header file for the resource file with
