Very interesting! Thanks for the pointer. I had a quick glance and it doesn't look bad at all. What a pity that it didn't pick up (at least, I guess it didn't). If I were the AmigaOS developers, I'd give it good look.
I wonder if it predates DefIcons and if DefIcons' author knew about it (I made only a quick search and I couldn't find the date of the DefIcons initial release).
