The Icon Editor
With the Icon Editor, you can change the appearance
of
icons that appear on the
Workbench. You can find the Icon Editor
in
the System drawer on the Work-
bench.
To
use the Icon Editor, you must be familiar with the Amiga Disk Operating
System (AmigaDOS) and the conventions
it
uses for file names. To learn about
AmigaDOS, see Chapter 7
in
this manual and the AmigaDOS Manual from
Bantam Books.
If you are a software developer, you can also use the Icon Editor to create icons
for new tools, projects, and drawers. To learn how to create new icons, see the
Amiga
ROM
Kernel Manual, available from Addison-Wesley.

requester appears
in
the window that describes the different kind
:;
of
icons. Select
the OK gadget to continue. (For information about the different icon types, see
the Amiga
ROM
Kernel Manual.)
