I have observed whai I think is a bug in ICONX.PRG on the Atari ST. I have
a 1040 so it seems that a large program with full sized regions should be
able to run on top of ASH but I get memory errors.

I think the bug may be that ICONX is using the region sizes (in bytes) as
a parameter to a TOS allocation routine which might be using 2 or 4 byte
allocation units.

Other than this bug, Icon is great on the ST although it would be nice to
have some support of the graphics, mouse and cursor addressing etc.
