Thanks Roger. I can supply the .ico file I intend to use so the question isn't really how to /create /the .ico file from within Livecode, it's how to assign the .ico file to the folder so the folder displays it on the desktop.

I can do this /manually /on Windows. Right-click, choose Properties, click the Custom tab and the click Choose File in the Folder Pictures section. This is what I want to do from within Livecode.

Thus far, there is no way to create OS specific icon files within LiveCode,
but I have always thought there should be.  You have to use Photoshop,
Gimp, or other custom icon software to create icons that contain all the
various resolutions required by each OS.

How about a widget for that, RunRev?

Does anybody know of a way, from within Livecode, to create a folder and
give it it's own custom display on the desktop?  I'd imagine this would be
done with an .ico file.  I'd like to do this for both Mac and Windows.

I've looked through the RunRev store and haven't found any extensions
which do this.  Maybe through a command-line somebody has written?
