	I have been meaning to ask this question as well.  I can
draw nice icons which duplicate a graphics picture in miniature using
iconsize(), etc.  But I lose control over what state the program is in 
whenever the icon gets tidied.  Can someone post a quick summary of
what tidy really does, or point to some place in the documentation?
