<para><command>gresource</command> offers a simple commandline
interface to <link linkend="GResource"><type>GResource</type></link>.
It lets you list and extract resources that have been compiled
into a resource file or included in an elf file (a binary or a
shared library).
</para>
<para>
The file to operate on is specified by the <replaceable>FILE</replaceable>
argument.
</para>
<para>
If an elf file includes multiple sections with resources, it is
possible to select which one to operate on with the
<arg choice="plain">--section</arg> option. Use the
<arg choice="plain">sections</arg> command to find available sections.
