Is there any way (or existing utility) which allows me to CREATE a default
icon for a file without fiddluing with the COPY command os DOS?

What I'd like to do is this:  I have a few directories or files on disk
which do not have icons.  With wb2.0 I can create "visual" default icons
for these... but they go away, and can not accept a position snapshot
or internal data.

Ideally, a menu option to SNAPSHOT a fake icon should CREATE a real icon for
the item.  It seems logical.  If I'm not mistaken, snapshotting a deleted
DISK.INFO does in fact create a real disk.info.  I wish this were the case
with all occurances.

I have need for this often!
