System icon
Hi guys,
My last years of abstinence in Amiga make me forget some things.. Does anyone know in what directory is located the file .info that makes the system icon?.. I thought that it was at the prefs:env-archive/sys but couldn´t find it there |

It should be in the same dir where the actual System folder is.
DH0:System =folder and DH0:System.info = .info |

he's probably referring to the disk icon for the System: volume. Which is System:disk.info

Sorry guys, I don´t explained too well.
I have the NewIcons installed and in my WB screen appear a System icon that doesn´t correspond with disk.info at root of system partition, so I thought that it was in prefs:env-archive/sys with the name of def_disk.info but don´t find it. Any ideas where it is the .info file corresponding to the icon of system partition that appears in my WB screen? |

I thought that particular icon (the one with the Superman S?) was for the System drawer, and hence should be SYS:System.info - it is not a disk.info as far as I recall. I think I used it for "S" though, so I might be wrong on its original purpose, hence the question mark earlier.

Racking my brains, I believe icons had a type associated with them too, so if you want to repurpose (eg use a disk icon as a drawer icon) you'll need to either edit the file in hex (offset 48, 1 byte) or use a tool to do so for you...
