Hiya Lunatic,

I got cya on this one!!  :)  Let's see, since you're going to work for Apple
now, just give an advanced copy of 6.0.1.  :)

Following is stolen from March, 1992 issue of A2-Central ( Vol. 8, No.2 )...

page 8.11
     FINDER 6.0 KEEPS ITS OWN ICONS IN ITS RESOURCE FORK AS RICON RESOURCES.
Several third-party utilities exist to edit rIcon resources.  Feel free to
customize the icon images in Finder 6.0.  There's also a special resource to
customize the eight standard window positions, the standard folder background
and outline color, the standard quit setting, the standard trash can position,
the standard trash window position, and the standard clipboard window position.
[..]

Can Foundation's ( is it v1.1? ) ScriptEdit customize rBundle resources?  Are
there any other utility that can do it yet?  Isn't there like IconEd v2.0?!

Thanks.
