To do this, change (if needed) the install directory in IB (under project inspctr) to be the directory you wish. Then, from a shell in your project directory, issue the following command: make -install Then do a Find Applications from the Utilities menu. The app in the directory you specified should now have the icon set. As I don't regularly work on NeXTs anymore (but wish I did), I don't promise that all the info is completely accurate, but the general solution is! ,---------------------------------------------------+---------------------. | Eric D.
