I know that you can customize an file/app's icon by pasting something into
the get info window, but how do you give it a custom icon family? (by this
I mean icl4, ics4, etc etc)  Edit the BNDL resource with ResEdit?  The
problem with this is I seem to need to rebuild the desktop every time I
make a change, or everything just stays the same.  Setting the bundle bit
and unsetting inited doesn't seem to work.  Any ideas?
