1. Info
If your like me and hate manipulating your .info files via the CLI and so on
then this is the util for you!
When run the program opens an AppIcon, drop your objects on this.
What the Buttons do:
[Default Icon]
This option creates a default icon for the object, if an icon already exists then
tooltypes, stack, and so on is copied across to the new icon. Multiple icons can
be processed at once by using the shift select method.
[Image]
This option copies the icon image from the first icon you selected to all the
others, new icons will be created if they do not already exist.
[ToolTypes]
This option copies the icon tooltypes and tool from the first icon you selected
to all the others, new icons will be created if they do not already exist.
[Remove]
This option removes the icon file associated with the selected objects. Multiple
icons can be processed at once by using the shift select method.
[File Type]
WB3.x only.
This option uses the datatype library to decide what type of file you have passed
to it, it will then give the file the related icon. If the file is not recognised
or the file is a system object nothing will be done.
To use this you will need to create the following icon files and put them with the
other default icons in Prefs/Env-Archive/Sys/
This function looks firstly for the format def icon i.e.( def_GIF, def_JPEG ) if
this is not found it will look for the group def icon, which in this case would
be def_Picture, if this is not found then nothing will be changed.
These are the DataType Groups.
def_Text.info
def_Document.info
def_Sound.info
def_Instrument.info
def_Music.info
def_Picture.info
def_Animation.info

[Abort]
This option aborts (stupid question really).
To quit double click on the AppIcon and select quit.
