This should work. I suspect that what's happening is that the resource name
isn't your filename (very often the EmbeddedResource will have a namespace
prefix).
If you're on OS X you can verify this with `monodis`:
$ monodis --manifest *.dll
Manifestresource Table (1..1)
1: public 'Bxc8410.Resources.AboutResources.txt' at offset 0 in current
module
That was from setting the Build action for AboutResources.txt to
"EmbeddedResource"; note that it has a namespace + folder prefix, not just the
filename.
`ildasm` will also provide you the name of embedded resources.

Content is not supported on Mono for Android.
