- Short: Forces Disk.info to pos/image;Needs MUI
- Type: util/wb

- ForceIcon is an utility mainly for users of CDRom drives
- or users of networking software capable of sharing devices
- and icons. Since one can not snapshot the position of a
- volume`s icon (on read only media), nor replace it by a
- user-defined one, I wrote this utility. ForceIcon allows
- you to set the position of a disk`s icon and/or replace
- it by a different image/icon which doesn`t have to be a
- disk.info file. All types of ".info" files may be selected.
- Special features include inheritance of device specific
- settings, specifying the root drawer`s size/position
- and display flags/modes. Giftware, includes Source
-
