I think you have to pick up ie.icn off the web at:

   http://www.mitchellsoftwareengineering.com/icon/ie.icn

However, it depends upon you having some knowledge of how
Icon/Unicon is installed on your system and also references
a source file that isn't generally available.  So I don't think
I'd recommend it as a way to learn Icon or Unicon.  Both Icon
and Unicon compile so fast that you're probably better off
going through a simple edit->compile->run loop to learn either
language.

ie is better suited to evaluating specific Icon expressions than
as a tool for learning the language.

For the record though, once you point ie.icn to the correct
version of image.icn in the Icon programming library (which is
also available in the Unicon distribution) and write and translate
your own version of split.icn (mine is attached), then ie works
just fine under either Icon or Unicon.
