When you open the Icon Editor, the Icon Editor icon is loaded into alI nine
frames. Because the Icon Editor icon represents a tool, you must load
another icon if you want to replace an icon of another type.
There are three steps to saving an icon:
1. Select the frame containing the icon.
2. Choose Save Data from the Disk menu. In the requester that appears,
select the gadget immediately below the words "Enter Icon Name
( .info Will Be Added)" and then enter the AmigaDOS description for
the file or directory whose icon you want to replace . This description

• an abbreviated description that specifies the relationship of the file
or directory to the directory in which the Icon Editor resides. For
example, you can replace the icon for the Trashcan by entering
either:
