-Replaced- ??
But the older machines don't recognize the cicn resource,
right? We need the ICON resource for those systems ... which
brings me to the bug: If you have BOTH a cicn (new) and
ICON (old) w/ the proper id # (1000), the ICON resource will
be displayed! Shouldn't the newer systems take the cicn in
preference to the ICON?
This is true at least on OS 3.0, and (I think) OS 3.3. (Haven't
checked 3.5 yet.)
