Here's an Icon editor for the //gs.

(Dave was unable to post it directly, so I did)

It's in three parts; the last one contains instructions for combining them
together.  If you are using stripexec, make sure that you are careful when
handling the last one or you will delete the last few lines.

The remainder of this message is the release notes for version 1.1

DIcEd v1.1          release notes    DAL Systems

=================================

[CompuServe 72177,3233; GEnie D.LYONS2; AppleLinkPE Dave Lyons]

I've received lots of good suggestions for DIcEd.  I wish there
was enough time to implement them all right now.  I think this
version is enough of an improvement to make it worthwhile, and
your continued suggestions are encouraged.

----------------------------------------------------------------
New features in DIcEd v1.1:

  o The Edit Attributes filetype window knows about some new
    special filetypes used under Finder 1.2 onSystem Disk 4.0
    (GS/OS).

  o The Help and view-text-file windows are 4.7 zillion times
    faster now.

  o Four sizes of fat pixels are available in Edit Icon windows
    (see View menu).

----------------------------------------------------------------
Bug fixes in DIcEd v1.1:

  o Clicking in the icon area of an icon file window while
    the Edit button was disabled (when positioned at icon
    #0, before all the icons in the file) would let you
    edit this nonexistent icon, possibly leading to a crash.

  o Some users have had DIcEd 1.0 crash while quitting.  I
    believe this was because of some buggy code in the TML
    Pascal 1.50A library, and I now bypass that code.  If
    you still get crashes, I want to hear about it.

  o The rectangle around the sample icons will always be
    redrawn properly now.

  o Bogus redrawing of the fat-pixel images used to happen
    after drawing pixels and releasing the mouse if the window
    was scrolled vertically by a sufficient amount (some code
    was trying to force the sample icons to be redrawn but
    the window's origin was not set appropriately, so part
    of the fat-pixel image was forced to be redrawn instead).

  o The hot spot of the Pencil cursor has been moved down
    and right by one pixel.

  o The Watch cursor is displayed while printing a text file
    to the printer.
