- MakeIcon
- ~~~~~~~~
- WB2.0 utility by Robert Lang.
-
- Note - You need WB2.0 with exec.library V36 or greater to use this program.
-
- MakeIcon is a further extension of my IMakeDir program, this time it simply
- creates default icons of type specified for a file.
-
- Usage is simple :
-
- MakeIcon type name
-
- and the file name.info will be created of type according to :
-
- DISK - default disk icon
- DRAWER - default drawer icon
- TOOl - default tool icon ie. an executable
- PROJECT - default project icon ie. a data file
- GARBAGE - default garbage icon
-
- These are simply the icon defined as default icons under the WB2.0 icon editor,
- corresponding to their relevant names.
-
- So, when I create a program called game, if I want someone to check it out and
- they aren't a shell-freak like me, I just do :
-
- makeicon tool game
-
- and then an icon appears for the game, so they can double-click and play !
-
- Simple ??? Simple !!! Note that if you want to make an icon for a drive,
- then when using the disk type, the file name will have to be "disk"
- for it to work...ie. makeicon disk df0:disk !
-
- MakeIcon may be freely distributed, but I retain all copyright to it and this
- documentation. MakeIcon may NOT be used on ANY commercial product, and may
- only be distributed for a copying fee comparable to the latest Megadisc prices,
- and only if this document and MakeIcon remain unaltered.
-
- MakeIcon is as usual dedicated to my girlfriend, Suzanne Day.
-
- Enjoy !
