- Icon Juggler only has the options to set and delete pixel and move the icon;
- a real icon editor offers some more features. If you want to see a good icon
- editor, look for Iconedi 3.07 by Stefan Muench (I think that's the program Steve
- wanted). Features: Icon and Image editor, maximum size 640x400 dots, all
- neccessary elements like lines, squares, rectangles, circles, ellipses, circle
- & ellipse parts, automatic import of icons/images from resource files, export
- of icons as a resource file, etc., etc...
-
- In the current version, Iconedi can't edited any resource file directly, you
- have to import the icons, modify them, save the edited icons as a resource
- and merge them into the resource file using a normal resource construction set.
- This will change in the next version.

- PPS: Iconedi is shareware (~ $15), docs are in german (that will change, too)
