Below is a resedit file containing an init I wrote that displays the Icon
at startup. Just copy the init resource and paste it into any Init file
that doesn't display an Icon and then it will. If the Init you add it to
does not contain an init, it will display the standard mac Icon. I haven't
figured out how to display its name at init time yet so that feature is not 
to usefull. The init looks for an Icn# with an id of 128. if it finds one then
it displays it. So if you want you can create an icn# 128 and it will display 
it. It will also display a cicn if one is available. The reason that it looks 
for an icn# 128 is because if the init has a bundle resource the its icon is 
usally 128.

It is freeware but not public domain. its version is 0.5. and the name of the
actual init is called "showtheicon". If you have any conflicts, just throw it
in the trash.
