Extract resources from PE file via script/command-line

Question

I want to write a script (or something similar. don't care which language) which extracts the resources from a PE file (.rsrc section). I'm using Python's pefile and peutils for various PE tasks, but couldn't find anything which actually extracts the resources.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks, Moshe

Does PEDUMP work? See here for the description on how to use it. From a quick scan this article seems to show how to decode the resources section. Finally this shows some c++ code to extract resources.
