 hs_container::read_resources
        Read the resource file for IDL_HS.

 Usage:
        hsref -> read_resources

 Notes:
        Looks for ~/.idl_hsrc first, and
        then if that's not found for idl_hs.rc in the default data
        dir.
        resources take the form of a line with
         resource = value
        comments start with a #, note that resource values cannot
        currently contain a # character. The resource names are not
        case sensitive, but the values may be.
