- I, too, tried and failed. I believe the Deskset Reference Guide asserts
- that the icons must be saved in Xview format if you want to use the icons
- either on the desktop or within filemanager. Can anyone explain why Sun
- bothered to put code into Icon Editor to save color X bitmaps if OW can't
- use them?
