Great, thanks.  Next question: if Disk.info does not exist, how can I get
a DiskObject structure which contains all the information (including in
particular the image of the icon) for the above-mentioned default system
icon.  Also, I notice that directories (drawers) often get .info files
lying around in them.  What are these?

Thanks, for the help
