- Sure. Pick the program object whose icon you like. Open its
- settings, go to the [General] tab, and choose <Edit>. When the icon
- editor opens, choose, under [Edit], [Select All] then [Copy].
-
- Go to the program object you want to receive this icon. Do the same
- steps to get to the icon editor, and then [Paste]. No prob.
-
- To transfer Windows .ICO files, you should pick up WINICON.ZOO off of
- hobbes.nmsu.edu. This will rewrite a Windows icon into an OS/2 icon,
- which you can then use by choosing <Find> off the [General] tab.
