1. Icon for .EXE File

I know this was discussed before, but I couldn't find a solution in the
Topica archives... How do I make a bound .EXW file take on an icon of my own
design?

Thanks!

2. Re: Icon for .EXE File

supposing you have a file names killerapp.exw, here's how you'd do it:
--------------------------------------
C:\>bindw
Name of Euphoria file to bind: killerapp.exw

Hide strings as sequences of ASCII codes?
(better shrouding but file will be bigger): (y)

Leave routine names clear, i.e. unshrouded?
(needed if you use routine_id): (n)

Scramble?
(better security, load time might be slower): (y)

Customized icon file (Press Enter if none): killerapp.ico

Creating killerapp.exe...
C:\>

That's about it.  You may also specify all of that stuff on the command 
line of bindw.

As for making icons, I find most programs aren't very good (at least the 
ones that are free!).  A free one I use with success is Icon Maker.  You 
can download it from:

Has anyone noticed that the subject is left out of most of the
recent post?

I'm alittle concerned about no subject in messages.

I get the subject line, too. Using OE 5.5. I did get one or two messages
without subject line a few days ago, but I guess the sender forgot to
include it.
