Marcus Harnisch writes: Thank you very much! Because you sent it to me too, I got it this time. The problem is that it is an application/* format, not an image/* format, and I don't like passing those over a mailing list. (I suppose there could be active content like macros in a text/* or image/* object, too, but application/* definitely worries me.) I'll have to do some research, but since it's a native source-ish format for an application that could be used to enhance XEmacs, it's probably worth allowing it to pass. _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta

Which would be way too detailed for an icon anyway. Ever since I started using XEmacs, I have asked myself the same question. It is perhaps a drop of the lifeblood that went into development of XEmacs :-) No problem. I have not personal attachment to this icon. It is not even my artwork after all. At some point, I guess I was just bored and annoyed by the gray "3D" Motif lookalike (that was part of the original icon) button on top of my "3D" FVWM (perhaps I was still using MWM?) button, or whatever I was using at the time. I basically just eliminated the button and made the drop shadow translucent, so it would work with different colored backgrounds. And it was created before I had kids...

So, to continue this spirit of optimism, here's a .ico version. Put it in nt, and change xemacs.rc as per the following patch, and you'll have the new/old icon on Windows and cygwin when you build: --- a/nt/xemacs.rc Fri May 27 13:50:15 2011 +0100 +++ b/nt/xemacs.rc Wed Jun 01 19:42:24 2011 +0100 ＠＠ -19,6 +19,6 ＠＠ 101 DUMP "xemacs.dmp" #endif -XEmacs ICON PRELOAD "xemacs.ico" +XEmacs ICON PRELOAD "xemacs-icon.ico" XEmacsFile ICON "File.ico" XEmacsLisp ICON "Lisp.ico" ht -- Henry S.
